Florida Department of Health COVID-19 Vaccination Exemption Forms

On November 18, 2021, Governor DeSantis signed legislation that outlines exemption requirements for COVID-19 vaccination mandates.

The Florida Department of Health is working alongside the Office of the Attorney General to oversee compliance with these laws.

Public employers, including educational or governmental institutions, are prohibited from imposing COVID-19 vaccination mandates. Violations for public employers can be reported to the Florida Department of Health through [email protected].

Private employers are prohibited from mandating COVID-19 vaccines for employees without opportunity for the employees to obtain an exemption. Florida employees can choose to be exempt from private employer vaccine mandates. Those forms can be found below:

• Medical Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination
• Religious Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination
• Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination Based on COVID-19 Immunity
• Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination Based on Periodic Testing
• Exemption from COVID-19 Vaccination Based on Employer-Provided Personal Protective Equipment
