Florida RN licensing in brief

• Florida is a Nurse Licensure Compact state. If your primary residence is another compact state and you hold a multistate license there, you can usually start working in Florida on that license.
• If you move to Florida, Florida becomes your home state and you apply for a Florida license.
• Licensed outside the compact (including Puerto Rico)? You can apply to the Florida Board of Nursing for licensure by endorsement. Passing the NCLEX-RN is generally required.
• Rules change, so confirm current requirements with the Florida Board of Nursing. Our recruiters can walk you through the steps for a specific job.
