TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) today announced that Florida’s Career Offender Registry is now available with enhanced search capabilities on the FDLE Mobile App.

 

On June 5, 2025, FDLE launched the enhanced Career Offender Registry on the FDLE website, which included new neighborhood search features and maps. On Feb. 10, 2026, FDLE’s Missing Persons and Offender Enforcement (MPOE) Division expanded the registry’s capabilities to the FDLE Mobile App.

 

The public can now search for career offenders by name, region, county, city or address. Neighborhood searches allow users to identify registrants residing within one-quarter-mile or up to a five-mile radius of an address. Results are displayed on both an interactive map and in a comprehensive list format.

 

Florida career offenders are individuals designated by a court as a habitual violent felony offender, violent career criminal, or three-time violent felony offender under section 775.084, Florida Statutes, or as a prison releasee reoffender under section 75.082(9), Florida Statutes, who are serving or have been released from sanction in the State of Florida on or after July 1, 2002. Today, the registry includes more than 20,000 Florida career offenders.

 

The FDLE Mobile App is free and available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Current users must update the app to access the new Career Offender Registry search features.

 

Florida’s Career Offender Registry is available online here.
