Frequently asked questions

Do security guards in St. Petersburg need a Florida license?

Yes. Florida licenses security through the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Division of Licensing, under Chapter 493 — St. Petersburg and Pinellas County have no separate guard license. Agencies hold a Class "B" Security Agency license, unarmed officers a Class "D", and armed officers an added Class "G" firearm license; investigation firms hold a Class "A". Everything verifies on the FDACS portal, so confirm the agency's Class "B" and its officers' credentials before you sign a contract.

How does Gulf-beach tourism shape security demand here?

Pinellas County's Gulf beaches — from St. Pete Beach to Clearwater — plus a revitalized downtown and arts district make hospitality, event and beachfront coverage central to the market. Hotels and resorts run guest-facing lobby and overnight posts; beach events, festivals and spring-break crowds drive seasonal event and crowd-management work; and downtown retail and the arts scene add loss-prevention and event demand. Providers here should train officers in guest service and verbal de-escalation, and be able to scale event staffing up for peaks and back down off-season.
