Step 3: Get Fingerprinted for Your Florida Real Estate License
🔍 Step 3: Get Fingerprinted for Your Florida Real Estate License
As part of the licensing process, the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) requires all applicants to submit digital fingerprints. This step allows the state to conduct a background check and ensure you’re eligible to hold a real estate license.
🖐️ How It Works
Fingerprinting is quick, secure, and done electronically. You can schedule your appointment in three convenient ways:
-
💻 Online at a certified Pearson VUE fingerprint location
-
📞 By phone at (877) 238-8232
-
📍 At an approved fingerprinting center near you
⏳ Don’t Wait!
Your application cannot be approved until your fingerprints have been submitted and processed — so it’s best to take care of this early, ideally while you’re working through your pre-licensing course.
⚠️ Important Notes:
-
Fingerprints must be submitted electronically — paper submissions are not accepted.
-
Each license application requires its own set of fingerprints — they cannot be reused or transferred from other professions or agencies.
-
Be sure to use the correct ORI number provided by the DBPR so your fingerprints are matched to your application.
