The Florida Department of Revenue (DOR) is your first stop. They publish tax rate tables and guidance specifically for vapor products. Go to floridarevenue.com, search for "vapor tax," and you'll land on a page that lists the current rate, how to register, and how to file. That page is your baseline.

But don't stop there. The Florida Statutes, specifically Chapter 210, is the legal foundation for the tax. It defines what counts as a vapor product and sets the rate. Reading the statute might feel like homework, but it tells you exactly what the state considers taxable. If you're distributing a new product line, that definition matters—some items might not fall under the tax at all.

Finally, check for administrative rules and announcements. The DOR occasionally issues guidance that clarifies gray areas. Subscribe to their email alerts or check their "Recent Changes" section. It's the difference between guessing and knowing.
