INFORMATION ON APPLYING FOR A FLORIDA TITLE AND
PURCHASING OR TRANSFERRING A FLORIDA LICENSE PLATE
In response to your request, enclosed is an application for a Florida certificate of title (form HSMV 82040) along with a
License Plate Rate Chart (form HSMV 83140) which will assist you with purchasing or transferring a Florida license plate.
The application for title must be completed using first name, middle/maiden name and last name (name on application must
correspond with name on the proof of ownership). A residential or business street address in Florida must be provided unless
the applicant is a resident and an active duty member of the Armed Forces of the United States. A post office box address
is not acceptable unless the applicant is a resident and an active duty member of the Armed Forces of the United States.
Enter the date of birth and sex of the registered owner and co-owner (when applicable) in the spaces provided on the application.
If purchasing a license plate, the registration period begins the first day of the birth month of the registered owner who is listed first on
the application. See form HSMV 83140, page 3, Section I, for additional information.
Enter the Florida driver license number, Florida identification card number, or federal employer identification number of the
owner and co-owner (when applicable) in the space(s) provided on the application. A driver license number is not required for
vehicles not owned by a natural person. The applicant(s) must provide proof of his/her identity (driver license, identification card, etc.),
including proof of identity for any individual signing as an authorized agent for a company/business, when applicable.
The vehicle identification number (VIN) on all used vehicles brought in from out-of-state must be physically verified. The VIN
verification section (#8) on the form HSMV 82040 must be completed.
The application for title must be accompanied by acceptable proof of ownership. For acceptable proofs, see page 4, item
16 on the enclosed form 83140. Proof of ownership must be in the name of the applicant or properly assigned tothe applicant.
The original proof of ownership will be retained.
License plates for private passenger cars and lightweight trucks (under 5000 pounds) are transferable to similar and lesser
weight vehicles without additional tax or transfer fees. See form HSMV 83140, page 4, for the calculation of fees.
Florida sales tax on the purchase price of the vehicle may be due. Use the enclosed form 83140 (see page 3, Section IV) to
determine the sales tax due. Any declaration and/or exemption regarding sales tax on a vehicle must be recorded on the reverse side of the
form HSMV 82040. An exemption from the payment of sales tax may apply when a member of the United States military, who is a
permanent Florida resident, stationed outside Florida, purchases a motor vehicle or vessel outside of Florida and titles and registers the
motor vehicle or vessel in Florida. The military member must provide an affidavit declaring this exemption. A sample affidavit is
enclosed for your convenience.
.
In addition to Florida sales tax, there may be a discretionary sales surtax imposed by the county to a resident of that county. The
discretionary sales surtax is based on the first $5,000 of the purchase price. Refer to the enclosed material for participating counties. The
maximum total sales tax and discretionary sales surtax to be collected on a vessel is $18,000.
The Hope Scholarship Program provides a public school student who was subjected to an incident of violence or bullying at
school the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to attend an eligible private school. You may designate $105 per vehicle to an
eligible nonprofit scholarship-funding organization participating in the Program. If the state sales tax due is less than $105, you may
designate the amount of state sales tax due. Complete the Hope Scholarship Program Contribution Election Form (DR-HS1) in this
packet.
When applying for registration, proof of Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance and Liability insurance is required. You
may complete and submit the enclosed Florida Insurance Affidavit (form HSMV 83330) or submit a copy of your Florida insurance
identification card, policy or binder. Note that Florida military members stationed outside of Florida who are exempt from
providing proof of Florida insurance should refer to the enclosed “Military Insurance Exemption Information.”
Your application and required documentation must be submitted to the Florida tax collector’s office in your county of residence.
For additional information, contact the tax collector’s office (list of offices enclosed) or call the Customer Service Center at
(850 617-2000). You may also visit the department’s website at http://www.flhsmv.gov/.

The categories below are computed based on CWT (per each 100 pounds) and may be monthly prorated. Add the flat fee plus the $1.50
or $2.00 amount, whichever applies, per each 100 pounds to determine the annual tax amount. Divide by 12 months to determine the
tax per month. Then compute the tax by multiplying the monthly rate times the number of tax months due and add the service and other
fees to determine the total amount.

I. REGISTRATION PERIODS
LICENSE PLATE RATES INSTRUCTION SHEET
The 12-month registration period begins the first day of the owner's birth month (Exceptions: Company owned vehicles use the month of June; truck-
tractors, semi-trailers and buses use a December birth month). Mobile homes use a January 1 begin date. If the rate chart indicates annual, half
year, and quarter year fee calculations, you must determine the number of months of tax required. To determine the number of months of tax
required, start with the month the vehicle was purchased or subject to registration and count through the month prior to the owner's birth month.
Three months or less requires the quarter year rate, four to six months requires the half-year rate, and over six requires the full year rate. (Example:
You purchased your vehicle in November and your birth month is June, count a total of seven months (November through May) and the full year rate
would be required.
II. TRUCKS AND TRAILERS
– WEIGHTS
For trucks weighing 5,000 lbs. or less, if the shipping weight is not available on the manufacturer's certificate of origin, the net weight or actual
scale weight in pounds with complete catalog equipment must be provided. A certified weight affidavit from a weighing station will meet this
requirement. The gross vehicle weight (GVW) as declared by the owner, is required on all truck-tractors and trucks weighing over 5000 pounds.
For heavy trucks with net weight of 5001-7999 lbs., GVW is calculated by adding the net weight of the truck and the truck's load. For heavy trucks
with net weight of 8000 lbs. up and truck-tractors, the GVW is calculated by adding the net weight of the truck or truck-tractor and its load to the net
weight of the trailer and its load.
III. INITIAL REGISTRATION FEE
Imposed upon the initial application for registration of private automobiles, trucks 5,000 lbs. or less and motor homes.
The $225.00 Initial Registration Fee does not apply to:
A. Any registration renewal transaction.
B. A transfer or exchange of a registration license plate for a motor vehicle that has been disposed of to a newly acquired motor vehicle in
compliance with Sections 320.0609(2) or (5), Florida Statutes.
C. Any initial registration that occurs when a transfer of Florida title is processed between co-owners as provided by Section 319.22, Florida
Statutes, or when a transfer of ownership by operation of law occurs as provided by Section 319.28, Florida Statutes. Additionally, the fee
does not apply when the transfer of title occurs from a person to a member of that person's immediate family. Section 657.002, Florida
Statutes, defines immediate family as parents, children, spouse, or surviving spouse of the member, or any other relative by blood, marriage, or
adoption residing in the same household with the registered owner.
D. The registration of a motor vehicle owned by and operated exclusively for the personal use of:
1) Any member of the United States Armed Forces, or his/her spouse or dependent child, who is not a resident of this state and who is
stationed in this state while in compliance with military orders.
2) Any former member of the United States Armed Forces, or his/her spouse or dependent child, who purchased such motor vehicle while
stationed outside of Florida, who has separated from the Armed forces and was not dishonorably discharged or discharged for bad
conduct, who was a resident of this state at the time of enlistment and at the time of discharge, and who applies for registration of such
motor vehicle within 6 months after discharge.
3) Any member of the United States Armed Forces, or his/her spouse or dependent child, who was a resident of this state at the time of
enlistment, who purchased such motor vehicle while stationed outside of Florida, and who is now reassigned by military order to this
state.
4) Any spouse or dependent child of a member of the United States Armed forces who loses his life while on active duty or who is listed by
the Armed Forces as "missing-in-action." Such spouse or child must be a resident of this state and the serviceman must have been a
resident of this state at the time of enlistment. Registration of such motor vehicle must occur within 1 year of the notification of the
serviceman's death or of his status as "missing-in-action."
5) Any member of the United States Armed Forces, or his/her spouse or dependent child, who was a resident of this state at the time of
enlistment, who purchased a motor vehicle while stationed outside of Florida, and who continues to be stationed outside of Florida.
E. The registration of any motor vehicle owned or exclusively operated by the state or by any county, municipality, or other governmental entity.
F. The registration of a truck defined as a "goat", or any other vehicle when used in the field by a farmer or in the woods for the purpose of
harvesting a crop, including naval stores, during such harvesting operations, and which is not principally operated upon the roads of this state.
The "goats" are registered under "class code 93".
G. The registration of an automobile or truck defined as "ancient" (the vehicle was manufactured in 1945 or earlier) or "antique" (the vehicle was
manufactured beginning 1946 and of the age of 30 years or more after the date of manufacture), pursuant to s. 320.086(1) or (2), Florida
Statutes.
H. The initial registration fee shall not apply to any newly acquired vehicle, upon submission of an affidavit, indicating that the previous vehicle (not
disposed of) is not operational, or is in storage, or will not be operated on the streets and highways of this state.
IV. SALES TAX
Florida law requires sales tax to be collected on the purchase price of a motor vehicle, mobile home, or vessel. In the case of a straight sale, six
(6) percent tax will be collected on the total purchase price. Straight sales are those sales that do not involve a trade-in of a motor vehicle, mobile
home, or vessel.
In the case of sales involving trade-ins, sales tax must be collected on the amount of the cash difference between the retail value of the trade-in,
as covered in any official used motor vehicle, mobile home or vessel guide, and the sale price of the motor vehicle, mobile home, or vessel
acquired. The trade-in motor vehicle, mobile home, or vessel may be provided by a third party other than the purchaser. The trade-in motor
vehicle, mobile home, or vessel does not have to be titled in the name of the purchaser, to be used for trade-in credit, as long as the motor
vehicle, mobile home or vessel trade-in and the motor vehicle, mobile home or vessel purchase are part of a single transaction.
In addition to the six (6) percent sales tax, some counties charge a local discretionary sales surtax. Discretionary surtax is calculated on motor
vehicles, mobile homes, or vessels when the residence address of the purchaser on the certificate of title or registration is located within a
discretionary surtax county. The discretionary sales surtax applies to the first $5,000 of the sales price. For more information on the
discretionary surtax you may contact the Florida Department of Revenue or your Florida County Tax Collector’s office.
Sales tax exemption information may be specified on an accurately completed form HSMV 82040, Application for Certificate of Title with/without
Vehicle Registration.

Florida's Discretionary Sales Surtax
Florida's Discretionary Sales Surtax
Discretionary sales surtax is a sales tax imposed by most Florida counties. The surtax
applies to most transactions subject to
sales or use tax
. Discretionary sales surtax is also
known as local option county sales tax. Sales tax dealers must collect discretionary sales
surtax and the 6 percent state sales tax from the purchaser at the time of sale.
You must remit both taxes to the Department of Revenue. Revenue distributes the
discretionary sales surtax collected back to the counties that levy the surtax. Counties use
these funds to help pay for local authorized projects.
When Is a Transaction Subject to Surtax?
You must collect discretionary sales surtax when the transaction occurs in, or delivery is
into, a county that imposes a surtax and the sale is subject to sales and use tax. Use the
chart below to help you determine when to collect the surtax.
When and at What Rate to Collect Discretionary Sales Surtax
(Local Option County Tax) on Taxable Sales
Follow @MyFLDOR_TaxInfo
Get more information about how to determine when a transaction occurs in a county
imposing a surtax.
Tax Rates
The discretionary sales surtax rate depends on the county. Rates currently range from .5
percent to 1.5 percent. A few counties do not impose the surtax.

http://dor.myflorida.com/dor/taxes/discretionary.html[5/13/2016 10:43:15 AM]
In many cases, there is a limit to the amount of tax charged. Discretionary sales surtax
applies to the first $5,000 of the sales amount on the sale, use, lease, rental, or license to
use any item of tangible personal property. Tangible personal property is personal property
that you can see, weigh, measure, or touch, or is in any manner perceptible to the senses,
including electricity. The $5,000 cap does
not
apply to rentals of real property, transient
rentals, or services.
Filing and Paying Taxes
Selling dealers pay discretionary sales surtax along with sales and use tax on the Sales
and Use Tax Return. You can
file and pay the tax and surtax
using Revenue's secure
web application, or you may buy software from
software vendor
. You can access the web
application using your certificate number and business partner number or a Revenue-
issued user ID and password. You must
enroll in our e-Services program
to receive a
user ID and password. Enrollment has advantages: you can save your bank account and
contact information, view your filing history, and reprint returns.

Effective 10/19
Page 1 of 1
The Hope Scholarship Program (Program) provides a public-school student who was subjected to an
incident of violence or bullying at school the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to attend an eligible
private school rather than remain in an unsafe school environment.
When you purchase or register a motor vehicle qualifying for the Program in Florida, you may designate
$105 per vehicle to an eligible nonprofit scholarship-funding organization participating in the Program. If the
state sales tax due is less than $105, you may designate the amount of state sales tax due. Your motor
vehicle dealer, county tax collector, or private tag agent will remit your contribution to the organization and
remit the remaining state sales tax and surtax to the Florida Department of Revenue.
Eligible contributions are used to fund scholarships for the Hope Scholarship Program. Contributions may
also be used to fund scholarships for the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program, which provides a low-
income student the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to attend an eligible private school. 
To make your contribution to the Program, complete the following. Sign and date.
Eligible Nonprofit Scholarship-Funding Organization:
Step Up for Students, Inc.
