List Your Business - It's FreeCottage food is governed by Florida Statute 500.80 (no state license). Local business requirements for Naples follow Collier County.
No state license is required. Under Florida Statute 500.80, cottage food operations sell approved non-hazardous homemade foods (up to $250,000/year) with no state permit or inspection. Naples is in Collier County, and Collier County generally requires a local Business Tax Receipt to run a home-based business.
All businesses operating in Collier County — including those within Naples, Marco Island, or Everglades City limits and home-based one-person operations — must obtain a county Business Tax Receipt from the Collier County Tax Collector. Fees vary by type of business. To run a home business in unincorporated Collier you need: a Home (Land Use) Zoning Certificate ($50.00), the BTR application and fee, any required state license, and a fictitious name registration. If your kitchen is inside Naples city limits, also check whether the city requires its own receipt.
Unincorporated Collier County requires a Home Occupation Land Use & Zoning Certificate ($50.00) from Planning & Zoning; the home occupation must be clearly incidental to residential use and not change the character of the home. Note F.S. 559.955 exempts many home-based businesses from local Certificate of Use — confirm whether the zoning certificate is still required for your specific cottage food operation. Home occupation must be clearly incidental and not change the character of the dwelling (Collier LDC home-occupation standards). F.S. 500.80 preempts local regulation of the cottage food operation itself; general residential zoning still applies.
Collier County Tax Collector: 239-252-2477. For health questions, Florida Department of Health in Collier County (DOH-Collier): 239-252-8200. Always confirm current requirements with the county before selling.
