CITY OF FORT MYERS TEMPORARY VENDOR TAX RECEIPT APPLICATION
This is a mandatory form that the City of Fort Myers requires all vendors to complete or they will not be eligible to exhibit. If
you have a LEE COUNTY or CITY OF FORT MYERS business tax certificate, you must provide a copy of it with your
application. The vendors not holding a Business Tax in either of those two jurisdictions need to complete the City of Fort
Myers Temporary Vendor Tax Receipt Application that is attached in the Festival applications. State sales tax number has
nothing to do with "Business Tax."
Please note that if you are applying for the City of Fort Myers Temporary Vendor Tax Receipt, there is a $10 charge. This
check must be addressed to the City of Fort Myers and be sent to the Edison Festival of Light, Inc. as part of your application
packet. This is a separate fee from your Crafts on the River & Vintage Market entry fee.
