Florida does not require a state-level tree care license, but most counties and municipalities require a local business tax receipt and proof of insurance. Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties have tree preservation ordinances requiring permits before removing protected species. Workers' compensation is mandatory for employers with 4+ employees. OSHA 1910.269 (tree trimming near power lines) is aggressively enforced after storm events. Crane operations require NCCCO certification.
