Mobile homes are required to be registered with a current decal at all times, even when unoccupied. Mobile home decals expire December 31st of each year. The fee to register a mobile home is determined by the length of the mobile home. A double wide mobile home requires separate registration for each side. Failure to register every year will result in delinquent tax.

If you currently have a regular mobile home decal, and you own the land your mobile home is affixed to, you may declare it as real property instead of renewing the registration annually.

Contact the Property Appraiser’s office at (813) 272-6100 for an application for a real property decal. Submit the completed application and mobile home title or registration to the Tax Collector’s office for the issuance of a real property decal.
