I'm going to assume your question means you want to contact the correct place to get a coupon book if you rent your property to others.

You can go online and register easily the Florida Department of Revenue, but I know the link will be removed. You can also contact them at the following:
Florida Department of Revenue
5050 W Tennessee St.
Tallahassee, FL 32399-0120

If the intent of the question is to avoid paying tax if you rent your property, it's tax evasion. Much of the money goes to those that live in the surrounding area of The Villages.

Personally, I hope there is a way for the government to know who rents their property short term and don't pay the correct tax. We have no great love sending a monthly check, but it's the law and the right thing to do.
