Are there any exemptions from Business Tax Receipts?
There are some fee exemption (business tax receipts and prerequisites are still applicable) for disabled veterans (up to $50.00); full exemption for 65 years or older ($1000.00 less in capital and resident of St. Johns County), widows with dependent children, handicapped or blind. The applicant for the exemption must be conducting the actual business, and not an “absentee owner”. There is an application that must be completed and notarized. Please call the St Johns County Tax Collector’s office for more information.
