Statewide
FloridaAccounting, Tax & Fractional CFO
Florida has no state personal income tax — making it a popular relocation destination for high-income business owners. But the relocation itself requires careful tax planning to actually break the prior state's residency. Rubric Financial supports Florida small businesses and relocators with residency planning, federal tax, and Florida-specific compliance.
What's Different About Florida
Local context that affects your books and tax
- No Florida personal income tax — federal still applies fully, but state-side residency planning is critical when relocating from CA, NY, or NJ
- Florida corporate income tax: 5.5% on C-corp net income (passthrough entities are not subject)
- Sales and use tax: economic nexus at $100,000 in sales; many digital products and SaaS are taxable
- Property tax exemptions for homestead (primary residence) — material for relocators
- Tangible personal property tax on business equipment — annual return required
- Residency change planning is its own discipline: domicile test, prior-state audit risk, day-counting, and asset/account relocation timing
