In unincorporated Miami-Dade, County Code §33-28 requires an annually renewed Certificate of Use for any vacation rental of less than 30 days, with inspections. A Florida DBPR vacation rental license applies everywhere, and each rental registers separately for county tourist taxes with the RER Business Section. Always confirm the latest rules with the relevant local authority before listing — we'll point you to exactly what applies to your property. Tourist development tax 6% (7% in Miami Beach; 4% in Surfside and Bal Harbour) On rentals of six months or less, on top of Florida's 6% state tax. [Florida DOR, DR-15TDT Local Option Transient Rental Tax Rates (R. 10/26)](https://floridarevenue.com/Forms_library/current/dr15tdt.pdf) Common questions ## Miami-Dade County STR management — FAQs What tourist taxes apply to vacation rentals in Miami-Dade County? Outside Miami Beach, Surfside and Bal Harbour, the county collects 6% on rentals of six months or less: a 3% convention development tax, a 2% tourist development room tax and a 1% professional sports tax. Miami Beach pays the 3% convention development tax plus its own 4% resort tax. These are on top of Florida’s 6% sales tax and Miami-Dade’s 1% discretionary sales surtax. Do I need a county permit to run a vacation rental in Miami-Dade? In unincorporated Miami-Dade, yes. County Code §33-28 requires a Certificate of Use before a property is offered for stays of less than 30 days, renewed every year and subject to inspection. Inside a city, that city’s rules apply instead, and Miami-Dade says a business located in a city needs both a city and a county business tax receipt. Which Miami-Dade cities restrict short-term rentals the most? Coral Gables does not allow stays under six months in residential zones, and Miami Beach bans short-term rentals in all single-family homes and many apartment buildings. Doral prohibits rentals under seven days, Key Biscayne sets a 15-day minimum, and North Miami Beach limits houses and townhomes to three short rentals in 12 months. ## Sources 1.
