Any person, corporation, or partnership who sells used motor vehicles for retail or wholesale purposes in Florida must have a Florida Used Car Dealer License (AKA: Florida Independent Dealer License.)
If you wish to sell new vehicles, please see our post on how to get a franchise dealer license in Florida.
The general rule of thumb is that if you deal 3 or more used vehicles in a 12-month period, you must have a Florida Used Car Dealer License. These vehicles must be titled in your name.
