Steps
Recognize that Florida moved surveyor/mapper regulation OUT of DBPR to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) under Chapter 2009-66, Laws of Florida, effective October 1, 2009 — do not query DBPR's surveyor board pages, they are stale.
Start at FDACS's Professional Surveyors and Mappers hub at https://www.fdacs.gov/psm for licensing context and current board contacts.
Run the actual lookup on the shared state licensing portal at myfloridalicense.com's license search (wl11.asp), filtering by profession 'Surveyor and Mapper'.
Search by license number (most reliable) or full name, and confirm status reads Active — Inactive/Delinquent/Suspended/Revoked are not valid to practice.
For licensure statute detail (Chapter 472, F.S.) or CE/exam rules, return to fdacs.gov rather than myfloridalicense.com, which only serves status lookups.
Known gotchas
COLLISION: many search results and older blog posts still say 'Florida DBPR' regulates surveyors — that has been wrong since 2009; the regulator is FDACS, though the lookup tool itself still lives on the shared myfloridalicense.com portal.
The Board is formally the 'Florida Board of Professional Surveyors and Mappers' — distinct from the Florida Board of Professional Engineers (fbpe.org), which handles PE licensure, not PSM.
