Steps
Identify every county and municipality where the sign work will occur.
If work spans multiple jurisdictions, require a state-Certified Electrical Sign Contractor (ES) license issued by the DBPR Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board, which authorizes work statewide.
If work is confined to one jurisdiction, a Registered Electrical Sign Specialty (ET) license tied to that jurisdiction's local competency exam and then registered with DBPR is sufficient.
Confirm current license status and any local certificate of competency on the DBPR licensee search.
Check whether the target jurisdiction imposes additional local registration steps before permits will be issued.
Known gotchas
A locally Registered (ET) contractor cannot legally pull permits or work outside the county/municipality where their local competency card is held.
The electrical sign specialty (ES/ET) track is separate from the general Certified Electrical Contractor (EC) license; confirm the contractor holds the sign-specific credential, not just a general electrical one.
