Florida S0874 revises the criteria for professional licensure reciprocity for surveyors and mappers.

Florida S0874 amends the licensure requirements for surveyors and mappers, allowing the Board of Professional Surveyors and Mappers to certify applicants from other states or territories for licensure by endorsement. To qualify, applicants must hold a valid license from another jurisdiction, meet specific experience requirements, and pass the Florida law and rules portion of the examination. The bill authorizes the board to adopt rules to implement these changes and specifies an effective date of July 1, 2026.
