To purchase a firearm in Florida you will need a valid driver’s license or gov’t issued picture ID, be a Florida resident, and be at least 21 years of age.

For example, a vehicle registration, voter’s registration card, Property Tax Record, or a hunting/fishing license. If you are not a Florida resident, the firearm purchased may be shipped to a licensed dealer where permitted by state laws.**Some exceptions may apply to long guns. If you are not a U.S. Citizen, you must bring your Resident Alien Card, as well as, your Florida ID or a valid visa, hunting license, and your Florida ID.
