For assistance, contact the Business Tax Division at 305-883-5890 or businesstax@hialeahfl.gov; office at 501 Palm Avenue, Hialeah FL 33010; hours Monday–Friday 7:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m.
New Business Tax Receipt applications must be submitted in person at the Business Tax Division office — applications are not processed by mail. Payment (in-person or renewal) may be made at City Hall – Cashier's Office, 501 Palm Ave, 3rd Floor, or by mail to P.O. Box 918661, Orlando FL 32891-8661.
Annual Business Tax Receipt runs October 1 – September 30. Renew on or before September 30 to avoid delinquency penalties. Delinquency penalties escalate monthly per FL Statute 205.053(1); Hialeah Code Sec. 86-44 was not directly verified (Municode was HTTP 403-blocked) — contact Business Tax Division at 305-883-5890 to confirm the exact local delinquency schedule and penalty rates.
FL Statute 205.053(3) authorizes a statewide civil penalty if the business tax remains unpaid 150 days after initial notice — this is statewide/self-executing and does not require the City of Hialeah to expressly invoke it in local ordinance.
A separate Miami-Dade County Local Business Tax Receipt is required from the Miami-Dade Office of the Tax Collector (mdctaxcollector.gov). Both the city and county receipts follow the October 1 – September 30 fiscal year. Building contractors must present a current Certificate of Competency (Miami-Dade County or State Construction Industry Board) when applying for the county receipt.
YourStanding must not calculate the BTR fee — fees vary by business type per Hialeah Code Sec. 86-43; contact the Business Tax Division at 305-883-5890 to confirm the applicable fee for your classification.
