What Florida asks of a business with a website

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Florida rules as any other.

• If your website sells products, collect 7.5% on most taxable sales delivered in Jackson County: 6% state tax plus the county’s 1.5% surtax for 2026. DR-15DSS (2026)
• Selling to customers in other states? Each state sets its own threshold for remote sellers; Florida’s is more than $100,000 of taxable remote sales in the previous calendar year. Section 212.0596, Florida Statutes
• Local business tax receipts in Florida can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Jackson County and Alford. Sections 205.032 (counties) and 205.042 (municipalities), Florida Statutes
• Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
