Each Cigarette or Tobacco Wholesale Dealer Permit is valid annually through June 30. The Division will accept
renewals online and by phone through Monday, July 1, 2024. A renewal by mail will be considered timely if

RENEWAL FEE AND METHODS OF PAYMENT
The fee for renewal of a Cigarette or Tobacco Wholesale Dealer Permit is provided on the enclosed renewal
notice. Payment of the fee may be accomplished online through a DBPR Online Services account, by phone
using direct checking/savings account withdrawal or a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American

DELINQUENT RENEWAL PENALTY
Any permit not renewed on or before Monday, July 1, 2024, (or postmarked by this date for renewals by mail)
will be assessed a delinquent renewal penalty in addition to the renewal fee pursuant to sections 210.1605 and
210.51, Florida Statutes. Florida law requires payment of a penalty of $20 for each month or portion of a month
of delinquency for renewals requested after expiration of the permit. A permit not renewed within 60 days after
expiration shall be canceled by the Division.
CHANGES TO THE PERMIT RECORD DURING RENEWAL
Florida law does not authorize a Cigarette or Tobacco Wholesale Dealer Permit to be transferred to another
owner or to another location when submitting the renewal. Therefore, a permittee may not use the address
change block field on the renewal form to request a change of the business location address. However, the
mailing address of record for receipt of correspondence, notices, and other information regarding the permit
may be changed on the renewal form by including an updated mailing address in the form’s address change
block and checking the box next to “Mailing Address.” For other changes to permit records, available online at
