Any changes or modifications, such as a physical address change, ownership or name change must be reported to the Tax Collector’s office. Changes can be requested online using BTExpress, unless otherwise noted.

Name Change/Ownership Change

If you have a current Hillsborough County business tax receipt and there has been a change in the ownership, business name or address, a transfer may be requested through BTExpress or in person. Any expired business tax receipts may NOT be transferred. A business tax receipt may NOT be transferred to a new owner if the current owner is an individual professional, contractor, or insurance adjuster.

Any business tax receipt may be transferred to a new owner when there is a bona fide sale of the business. A transfer fee of up to ten percent (10%) of the annual license tax (minimum $3.00 not to exceed $25.00), presentation of the original tax receipt and evidence of the sale is required.

If solely changing the name with no sale of business, please supply our office with verification of the name change and original paid tax receipt. The fees are the same as above.

Business Additions

If you have a current paid Hillsborough County business tax receipt and need to add an additional type of service or additional employees, seats, machines, your current tax receipt will be modified by a representative. Please submit your request via BTExpress  or in person. Fees will be determined by category and/or quantity of addition.
