Understanding the DBPR Inspection Process

Florida’s Division of Hotels and Restaurants (DHR) under DBPR conducts unannounced inspections of every licensed food service establishment in the state, typically one to four times per year depending on risk category.

When an inspector finds something, the disposition tells you what happens next:

• Inspection Completed - No Further Action — the establishment was compliant, with any issues resolved during the visit
• Call Back - Complied — a previous warning was issued, and a follow-up confirms the issue is fixed
• Warning Issued — the establishment received notice that issues must be corrected; a callback follows
• Administrative complaint recommended — the inspector escalated to formal regulatory action; the restaurant typically remains open during the process
• Emergency order recommended — the inspector identified a severe public health hazard

The cards above describe specific inspection events. Each one happened on the date listed and is part of the official public record at myfloridalicense.com.
