Tax Exemptions

 

Does Your Business Qualify?

 

If your business qualifies for any of the following exemptions, not only will you save money on your FPL bill, but you may also be eligible to receive a refund of tax already paid.

Per Florida Statute 215.26(2), businesses that qualify for an exemption, and have already paid the tax, may only be refunded 36 months from the date the request is processed.

To confirm if your business qualifies for any of the following exemptions, please contact the Florida Department of Revenue directly at 1-800-352-3671.

IMPORTANT: Incomplete forms will be returned and any expected refunds will be delayed as a result.
