The county
Where would a Nassau County vendor drive?
Fernandina Beach is the county seat and the largest of Nassau County's three incorporated places, with 13,869 residents in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate. Hilliard has 3,161 and Callahan 1,830.
That leaves 82% of the county's 106,879 residents outside any city or town, so most Nassau County addresses answer to the county rather than a town. The county grew 18.3% between 2020 and 2025.
Nassau County borders two other counties in 1Stop's region: Baker and Duval. The application takes every Florida county you will drive to, so list them all.

Getting set up
What does a vendor need to work in Nassau County?
Nassau County no longer levies a county business tax. Under Ordinance No. 2008-05, a county business tax receipt is no longer required in unincorporated Nassau County. A city inside the county can still levy its own, under section 205.042 of the Florida Statutes.
A contractor the state licenses through DBPR that has paid the business tax where its business is based owes no other city or county a business tax for temporary work there (section 205.065).
Building permits for unincorporated Nassau County go through the county's Building Department.
A registered contractor can work only where its registration applies, so for work here it has to cover Nassau County; a certified one works anywhere in Florida. 1Stop holds the license on file in the licensed trades, with a certificate of insurance and a W-9 for everyone.
