Bookkeeping Services in Florida: A 2025 Guide

With over 2.8 million small businesses, Florida is a hotbed of entrepreneurial activity. Whether you’re a contractor in Miami, a dentist in Orlando, or a boutique owner in Tampa, your business success depends on having clean, accurate books.

But Florida businesses face unique challenges-sales tax filings, tourism surges, cash-heavy operations-and that’s why choosing the right bookkeeping services in Florida is critical.

What’s Different About Bookkeeping in Florida?

Florida doesn’t have a state income tax, but it’s aggressive about:

  • Sales tax filings (DR-15)
  • Annual business reports
  • Local discretionary surtax tracking
  • Heavily cash-dependent sectors (retail, services, travel)

Even a small filing error can delay licensing, cost you penalties, or cause issues during audits.

What’s Included in Florida Bookkeeping Packages

With RemoteBooksOnline or a qualified Florida-focused provider, expect:

  • Monthly reconciliation of all accounts
  • Categorization by state-specific tax codes
  • Monthly profit & loss, balance sheet, and cash flow reports
  • CPA oversight for accuracy and state compliance
  • Support for QuickBooks, Xero, and other tools
  • Payroll tracking and tax-ready reporting if needed
