Tangible Taxes
In Florida, tangible personal property taxes refers to ad valorem taxes on the assessed value of furniture, fixtures, and equipment located in business and/or rental properties and on mobile home additions, where the owner of the mobile home does not also own the land upon which it is affixed. Mobile home additions subject to taxation include skirting, screen rooms, utility sheds, awnings, air conditioning and heating units. |

STATE PROHIBITION: Florida's Constitution prohibits state government from levying ad valorem taxes on real property and tangible personal property. This gives counties, school districts, municipalities, and special taxing districts the exclusive right to levy ad valorem taxes on real property and tangible personal property. However, the state legislature can and does regulate the maximum rate at which ad valorem taxes can be levied and the manner in which they are collected. |
