Effective October 1, 2004, all insurance data required to be filed pursuant to Section 324.0221(1)(a) Florida Statutes, must be filed through File Transfer Protocol (FTP), with on-line link to our database. If your firm needs assistance in this transfer process from your current medium to the FTP system, we have identified some vendors who are interested in helping you. (Click on vendors for this information.)

**NEW SR22 and FR44 Reporting Process - Effective 06-30-2009, all insurance companies must be able to report all SR22s and FR44s electronically using the new transaction code 22 or 44 respectively via FTP. Reporting will be included in your regular submissions with your 'A' file. SR22s and FR44s should only be reported if a customer was not financially responsible and did not have the required liability coverage at the time of an event. Renewal SR22s and FR44s are not needed. Only SR26s or FR46s are needed when there is a break in continuous liability coverage.

SR-21 Verification Process - All companies should respond to our verification request via FTP.

Please email at insftp@flhsmv.gov, for any additional assistance or questions.

REMINDER we do not process electronic files on a State Holiday. NOTE for your records the holiday schedule which pertains to all State Holidays. All Fire and Property and Casualty Companies should not send electronic filing on these holidays.
