ABT — Alcoholic Beverages & Tobacco
Fingerprinting for liquor licenses, bar/restaurant permits, and tobacco retail licenses through the Division of ABT.
ABT applicants in Florida need a Level 2 Live Scan — a fingerprint-based FDLE (state) and FBI (national) background check submitted under ORI FL920150Z, with a $36 government fee. Provn captures your prints in about 15 minutes and transmits them to FDLE within 24 hours, with an instant TCN for tracking.
Who needs ABT fingerprinting
Concealed-weapon license applicants, alcoholic-beverage and tobacco licensees, pari-mutuel and gaming workers, and funeral/cemetery professionals licensed by the state.
About this check
These state licenses route results to the specific regulating agency shown by the ORI — for example FDACS for concealed-weapon or beverage licensing. Some license types restrict which providers may fingerprint applicants, so eligibility is confirmed before your visit.
What this ORI needs
- The regulator's ORI for your license type
- For concealed-weapon applicants, provider eligibility is confirmed first

Always confirm the ORI with your requesting agency — some programs use a position-specific code.
