Effective June 1st, 2008
The Nassau County Clerk of Court will no longer be accepting DR219 forms. The Governor has signed HB 7019, which repeals section 201.022 of the Florida Statutes. This means as of June 1st, 2008, you will no longer be required to submit the Florida Department of Revenue DR-219 form with any document transferring interest in real property. If the correct amount of doc stamps is not paid, this could result in penalties owed to and collected by the Florida Department of Revenue.The Documentary Stamp tax is based on $0.70 per $100.00 of the sale price, or outstanding mortgage balance. In order for us to record your document (s), you must be sure to include a minimum of $0.70 with each conveyance. Please take note of this change and adjust your records as necessary. If you have any questions please contact the Recording department.
Per Florida Statute 28.222
