For travel agents you need to meet all the requirements of Florida before you can get a Florida travel agent number.

Like so many other licensing agencies, they just increased the requirements.

I agree with what Sam wrote. It is not worth the penalties to do business with out the necessary licenses.

Using licensed contractors can help you if you ever have liability or other issues. It is also against the law to use unlicensed contractors.
