About doing business in Hollywood

Every Hollywood business needs a Local Business Tax Receipt and a Certificate of Use, including home-based businesses. The Certificate of Use confirms your use fits the zoning at that location. It's valid for 180 days, during which you get the tax receipt, and it becomes invalid if the business tax lapses.

Since August 4, 2026, all new building permit applications go through the City's Accela portal. The City also offers express permits for residential A/C replacements, water heaters, re-roofs and electrical service changes. Hollywood is in Broward County, part of the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.
