Licensing, permits and the transition

Fire sprinkler and fire extinguisher work in Florida is licensed through the Division of State Fire Marshal, while fire alarm and burglar alarm contractors are licensed by the ECLB. Many companies hold more than one license, so the transfer plan is specific to your mix.

Boca Raton requires a city business tax receipt in addition to Palm Beach County's, and locally licensed trades go through the Palm Beach County Construction Industry Licensing Board.
