Photographs and official records

Matches come back as people, not rows — the registry photograph, date of birth, addresses and offense, with a link to the official Florida record so you can verify at the source.

02

The whole country in one search

People move. One search here covers Florida and every other US registry at once, so a registration in Alabama and Georgia shows up on someone now living in Jacksonville.

03

Every search, kept

Each check is stored with the results you saw — an audit trail you can reopen, share with teammates, and stand behind later. Upload a CSV to screen a whole list in one pass.

What the Florida sex offender registry shows you, and what it leaves out. Knowing both keeps a search useful and fair.

What a Florida registry search shows

  • The person's registry photograph, name and any other names they use
  • Their age, and their date of birth as Florida publishes it
  • Home, work and school addresses, each labelled
  • The offense they were convicted of, and when
  • Their risk level and whether they are keeping up with registration
  • A link to the official Florida Sexual Offenders & Predators (FDLE) entry so you can confirm it

What it cannot tell you

  • Whether someone is safe. The registry lists a conviction, not a prediction
  • Anyone who was never convicted, or whose requirement has ended
  • Other criminal history. For that, see Florida criminal records
  • A reason to harass anyone. Using registry information to threaten someone is a crime
Inside the registry

What registered sex offenders in Florida are registered for. About half are registered for sexual offense against a child.

Searching the Florida state site vs searching here for Florida sex offenders. Both are free to start; here is what is different.

Florida's own public search is Florida Sexual Offenders & Predators (FDLE) — free, official, and the right place for a one-off look at a single state. Here is what changes when you run the same search here instead.

ScopeFlorida is in every search by default, and one setting narrows to it alone — in the dashboard a dropdown, in the API jurisdictions: ["FL"].
Date-of-birth matchingA date-of-birth criterion in Florida resolves at full-date precision and returns dob_match. Match strength is a label on every record — dob_match — rather than a yes or no, so you set your own threshold. 39 of the 56 jurisdictions we cover resolve it the way Florida does.
Best criteria to sendSend dob whenever you hold one — it is accepted in Florida exactly as it is everywhere else, and it narrows rather than filters, so a record with thinner birth evidence still comes back on the name. In Florida it is the strongest single narrowing criterion available, returning dob_match.
Location searchNarrow to a Florida city or ZIP, or search a radius of up to 100 miles around a point. Addresses come back as typed entries — residence, secondary, employment, school — so a work address in Jacksonville is distinguishable from a home address.
FreshnessContinuously updated, so a Regular result is close to live, and every record returns the date it was last checked.
VerificationEvery Florida match links to the person's official entry on Florida Sexual Offenders & Predators (FDLE), so any record can be confirmed at the official registry before you act on it.

Registry data is not a consumer report, and decisions made on it are regulated in that use.

Florida sex offender registry and its neighbors: how Florida behaves next to the jurisdictions around it. People move, so one search covers the neighbors too.

Registration follows the person, not the state line, so screening that covers Florida almost always has to read Alabama and Georgia in the same breath. One search here covers every row at once.

Florida offender search FAQ. Short answers before you search.

How many registered sex offenders are there in Florida?

Approximately 92,600 people are on the Florida register. It is a population that moves continuously — people are added, reclassified and released from the requirement every week — so treat the figure as scale rather than as a fixed number, and run a search when you need an answer about a specific person.

Should I search Florida's official registry site or here?

Florida Sexual Offenders & Predators (FDLE) is free and covers Florida. Searching here covers Florida and every other US registry in the same search, keeps a stored history of every check you run with the results you saw, narrows by date of birth, age, city, ZIP or street address, takes a whole CSV list at once, supports teammates on one workspace, and has a full API behind it. If you check people more than once, or people who may have lived anywhere else, that is the difference that matters.

How do I search Florida sex offender records by name and date of birth?

Type a last name and add whatever else you hold — first name, date of birth, city or ZIP. In the dashboard that is a form; through the API it is one request with jurisdictions: ["FL"] to scope the answer to Florida. Send dob whenever you hold one — it is accepted in Florida exactly as it is everywhere else, and it narrows rather than filters, so a record with thinner birth evidence still comes back on the name. In Florida it is the strongest single narrowing criterion available, returning dob_match.

Does a Florida search include people registered in other states?

It does when you let it. A search with no state scope runs across every US registry in one pass, which is how a prior registration in Alabama and Georgia surfaces on someone now living in Florida. Scoping to Florida narrows deliberately to the FL roster — the two are one setting apart, and every response reports which registries answered.

What does a Florida record contain?

Every FL record returns under the same normalized shape as the other 57 jurisdictions: identity and aliases, birth evidence with its precision stated, physical description, typed addresses, offense and conviction detail, tier or risk level, registration and compliance status, photographs newest-first, and match scoring on every record. One integration — or one dashboard — reads all of them.

Can I search Florida by city or ZIP code?

Yes. Narrow to any Florida city or ZIP, or sweep a radius of up to 100 miles around a point. Addresses come back as typed entries — residence, secondary, employment, school — so a work address in Jacksonville reads differently from a home address, and each entry carries its own city, county, ZIP and coordinates where geocoded.

How current is a Florida result?

The dataset is continuously updated, so a Regular result is close to live — and when a decision needs a current, moment-of-decision check, a live block re-verifies the named jurisdictions at the source in the same request. Every record returns its own lastCheckedAt, so currency is a value you read off the response rather than a claim you take on trust.
