    Do I need a License for shipping?
    Hey everybody i'm wondering what all I would need to ship reptiles? I live in Florida and I am filling out A "LICENSE TO POSSESS CLASS III WILDLIFE FOR EXHIBITION OR PUBLIC SALE" application here pretty soon. Do I need a license for shipping too?

    Here's the link to the app for the license to sell.

    I'm not in florida, but I've not heard that one needs a license to ship if you use shipyourreptiles.com or reptilesexpress.com

    You can become a fedex certified shipper able to ship straight through fedex, but shipyourreptiles.com is the easiest and best way to do it ;)

    You don't need a license, but you will need to be certified with FedEx to ship directly with them. You can use ShipYourReptiles.com, and you will be shipping under our certification. You must meet our Shipping Standards, which meet the FedEx standards, and include guidelines for things like packaging (at least 3/4" insulation) and temperature parameters (including heat pack use).

    We also offer On-time and Live Arrival Insurance, the only way to insure your animals through any carrier, and rates start at 20% off the FedEx retail rate. We have a detailed Get Help section to walk you through the process, but feel free to contact us directly if we can answer questions for you! Info@ShipYourReptiles.com.

    You do not need a license to ship..... only to sell.

    Shipping just goes along with the selling part ;)

    It would be wise to get your EIN from the IRS and your tax ID from SunBiz as well. Say hello to quarterly filing.
