Registrations

Florida Drivers License
The St. Lucie County Tax Collector provides drivers license and motor vehicle services for the community. Bring original documents to prove identity, including a Social Security number and residential address. The website www.gathergoget.com contains a complete checklist of the other types of identification that can be used to renew, obtain or update a license.

Motor Vehicle Registration
Vehicles must be registered and have Florida tags within 30 days of newcomers establishing residency, their first day of work or when they register their children for school.

Boat Registration
Anyone who owns a boat and will keep it in the state for more than 90 days must have it registered through the tax collector. The length of the boat will determine the cost.

Voter Registration
Anyone wishing to vote can register at the St. Lucie Supervisor of Elections offices in Fort Pierce, St. Lucie West and Port St. Lucie. Individuals must be a citizen of the United States, a Florida resident, age 18 or older, have never been convicted of a felony, not be mentally incapacitated, or not have the right to vote in another country or state. Registration must be completed 29 days before the election in which an individual would like to participate.

School Registration
To register children for school, visit the St. Lucie County School Board office of Student Assignment at the Orange Blossom Business Park on Okeechobee Road in Fort Pierce. The following documentation is necessary: proof of residency, a certificate of immunization, proof of a medical examination during the past 12 months, a birth certificate and a copy of the child’s last report card.

Pet Licenses
Any dog or cat within St. Lucie County (including unincorporated areas) must have a pet license. Contact the Humane Society to secure one.

Fishing License
All residents and visitors are required to obtain a license for freshwater and saltwater fishing. Call the St. Lucie County Tax Collector’s office for details.

Hunting License
Those wishing to hunt any bird or animal in season on any land except game reserves or posted private property without permission must obtain a hunting license. These permits can be obtained through the St. Lucie County Tax Collector or at Wal-Mart, K-Mart or any local bait and tackle shops.
