Step 4: Complete Fingerprinting Requirements

Fingerprinting is a mandatory part of the licensing process for both Florida residents and non-residents. Schedule your fingerprinting appointment through the DFS preferred vendor and make sure your fingerprints are submitted electronically to the DFS. You can also opt for Fingerprint Cards if needed.

For complete instructions and to make an appointment, visit the Fingerprinting Information page on the Florida DFS website.
