About this file

This is a Consumer's Certificate of Exemption issued by the State of Florida to the Broward County Board of County Commissioners, effective October 31, 2022, and expiring October 31, 2027. The certificate exempts the county government from Florida sales and use tax on real property, transient rental property, tangible personal property, and services purchased for customary nonprofit activities. The exemption applies exclusively to purchases made directly by the organization and does not extend to personal purchases by individuals on behalf of the county, even if those individuals are subsequently reimbursed by the organization.

The certificate requires that the Broward County Board of County Commissioners provide all vendors and suppliers with a copy of the exemption certificate prior to making tax-exempt purchases in accordance with Florida Administrative Code Rule 12A-1.038. The organization is prohibited from using the certificate for personal benefit or for the sale or lease of tangible personal property, sleeping accommodations, or real property to others. Fraudulent presentation of the certificate to evade sales tax payments constitutes a criminal offense subject to penalties including payment of the tax plus a 200 percent penalty, potential conviction as a third-degree felony, and revocation of the certificate.
