Plant City has no standalone STR registration program. Operators must register with FL DBPR (state license), FL DOR (sales tax), and Hillsborough County Tax Collector (TDT) but file no city-specific STR form.
FL §509.032 historically preempted local STR registration, though SB 280 (2024 session) would permit limited local registration fees. Plant City has not adopted a city-specific STR registration ordinance. Mandatory registrations for Plant City STR operators: (1) FL DBPR Vacation Rental Dwelling license - $50-$170 depending on unit count, renewable annually; (2) FL Dept of Revenue sales tax account; (3) Hillsborough County Tax Collector TDT account; and (4) Plant City Local Business Tax Receipt if gross receipts exceed threshold. HOAs and deed restrictions may impose additional registration requirements.
Unregistered DBPR: state fines up to $1,000. Unregistered TDT: county penalties plus interest. Operating without BTR: Plant City citation.
