Driver Licenses, Driving Tests and ID Cards

If you move to Florida and have a valid license from another state, you must get a Florida license within 30 days of becoming a resident. You are considered a resident of Florida if you:

enroll your children in public school, or

register to vote, or

file for a homestead exemption, or

accept employment, or

reside in Florida for more than six consecutive months.

Vehicle Registration/Tags

In the State of Florida, a motor vehicle is required by law to be registered within ten (10) days of the owner either becoming employed, placing children in public school, or establishing residency.

Registering your motor vehicle goes hand in hand with the titling process.

The 12-month registration period begins the first day of the owners birth month.

Company owned vehicles use the month of June.

Full amount is charged for the registration period regardless of when during the registration period the vehicle is registered.
