About doing business in Miami
The City of Miami is one of many municipalities in Miami-Dade County, and every business in the city needs both a City of Miami Business Tax Receipt and a Miami-Dade County receipt. Most also need a Certificate of Use before the city receipt.
Miami-Dade is part of the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone defined in the Florida Building Code, so windows, doors, roofing and other building products need specific approvals. Contractors here are licensed by the state or by Miami-Dade's own Construction Trades Qualifying Board.
