Why veterinarians choose Florida

  • No state income tax — your gross salary goes further than in California or New York

  • Year-round outdoor lifestyle, beaches, and lower cost of living than the Northeast

  • Strong demand: Florida is one of the fastest-growing states for pet ownership

  • Diverse caseload — small animal, exotics (very common in Florida), equine in central Florida

  • Many practices offer flexible scheduling, 30-minute appointments, and no on-call rotation

Florida licensing for veterinarians

To practice in Florida you need to be licensed by the Florida Board of Veterinary Medicine. The standard route is:

  • Graduate from an AVMA COE-accredited DVM/VMD program (foreign graduates need ECFVG or PAVE certification)

  • Pass the NAVLE (North American Veterinary Licensing Examination)

  • Pass the Florida laws and rules examination

  • Renew biennially with 30 hours of continuing education

If you're licensed in another state and considering a move, we can advise on timing and walk you through the endorsement process.
