Florida rolling out new eFile & Pay system in late 2025
Florida is migrating sales and use tax, prepaid wireless fees, and solid-waste fees to a new eFile & Pay system on December 1. Filers will lose access for part of November 26 – December 1 and must re-enter saved credentials.

What’s changing
Florida’s Department of Revenue is rolling out a new eFile and Pay system for:
- Sales and use tax
- Solid-waste fees and surcharges
- Prepaid wireless fee
Key transition details:
- Old system access ends Nov 26 at 5:00 pm ET
- From Nov 26 → Dec 1, taxpayers can make payments only
- Full filing access resumes Dec 1 at 8:00 am ET
- Saved credentials will not migrate; filers must manually re-enter login information
- The old site remains available for historical data only
Who this affects
- Florida retailers
- Remote sellers collecting Florida sales tax
- Marketplace facilitators
- Anyone remitting prepaid wireless or solid-waste fees
If you file Florida returns manually or via batch uploads, your filing workflow will change.
Why this matters
Florida’s filing windows are tight.
If you miss the December transition steps, you risk:
- Missed deadlines
- Login lockouts
- Delayed December returns
- Penalties for late filing or late payment
