SICSA LLC has obtained the Florida Certificate of Forwarding Agent Address (DR-14 FAA), issued by the Florida Department of Revenue, valid through March 2031.
This certificate officially recognizes us as international forwarding agents before the State of Florida, creating direct benefits for your import operations.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU?

✅ Verified and certified export address
Our address is listed in the State of Florida’s public database (floridarevenue.com), providing official validation for any U.S. supplier or retailer requiring verification.
✅ Greater agility in supplier negotiations
By presenting a copy of this certificate to your U.S. suppliers, you can negotiate tax-exempt purchases when the goods are destined for international export.
