Clerk of Court Revenue Remittance System


Introduction

Florida Clerk of Court and County Comptrollers collect millions of dollars on behalf of the State that must be distributed to various agencies. This online remittance system was developed in 2002 pursuant to legislation, which mandated that all funds be electronically remitted to the Department of Revenue for distribution to other state agencies.

Prior to 2002, each clerk or comptroller wrote a separate check to each state agency, several times each month. This system enables clerks and comptrollers to transfer funds for all state agencies in a single electronic transaction.

Through the use of this system, the clerk offices remit documentary stamp tax, Class C intangible tax, and over 148 different fines and fees to 52 trust funds managed by 19 state agencies.

Help is available 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday.
