Elevation Certificates

Beginning January 1st, 2023, Florida Statute 472.0366 requires a surveyor and a mapper to submit a digital copy of every Elevation Certificate (EC) they complete to the Division. To comply:

We are pleased to share that the Division is partnering with Forerunner to support this new submission process. Forerunner’s software gives users the ability to upload ECs to the state and view submitted ECs. Users can also explore property profiles that include parcel information, building information, and pertinent flood data included in the National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL).

If you are not able to locate an EC in our system or have questions, please check out our Knowledge Base, or contact us using the Get Help form.
