Running a website from Inverness: the Florida rules
Some homework before launch:
- Local business tax receipts in Florida can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Citrus County and Inverness. Sections 205.032 (counties) and 205.042 (municipalities), Florida Statutes
- Selling online from Inverness? The county has no sales surtax in 2026, and the state rate is 6%. DR-15DSS (2026)
- Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
- Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act makes deceptive or unfair practices in trade unlawful, and that includes what a business says about itself on its website. Section 501.204, Florida Statutes
