Florida has mutual recognition with 8 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Mississippi, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Brokers and Sales Associates can qualify for an equivalent type license in Florida if they meet the following qualifications:

  • Must be 18 years of age and hold a high school diploma or its equivalent.
  • Applicant must not be a resident of Florida, at time of application.

Applicants from Georgia and Mississippi must have obtained the Real Estate license by completing the educational requirements, satisfying the experience requirements, if any, and passing the Real Estate licensing examination of a state with which we have mutual recognition. Licensees can not claim mutual recognition if they obtained their license, in the mutual state, by reciprocity.

All other applicants must have obtained the Real Estate license by having met the education and examination requirements of the state with which Florida has mutual recognition.

Applicant must hold a valid, current and active real estate license, in good standing, issued by the Real Estate licensing agency in the state from which the applicant is applying.

The intent of these agreements is to recognize the education and experience that real estate licensees have acquired in another state. These agreements apply to nonresidents licensed in other jurisdictions. Each licensee who applies for Florida licensure from a state or jurisdiction that has a current mutual recognition agreement with Florida must pass a written Florida-specific real estate law examination. The exam consists of 40 questions of 1 point in value per question. A grade of 30 points or higher must be achieved to pass the exam. These agreements also ensure that Florida licensees have equal opportunity for licensure in those jurisdictions with which agreements are concluded.
