How do I maintain Florida or Texas residency if I am living abroad?

Written by Bo

To maintain Florida or Texas residency while living abroad, you can maintain a permanent address within the state provided by our service. This address can serve as your permanent mailing address for state ties (e.g., driver’s license correspondence). Voting-residence requirements are set by state election law and are separate from tax domicile. Voter registration is one supporting indicator of domicile, not determinative on its own. SavvyNomad does not determine whether any address qualifies as your residence for voting purposes. Confirm the appropriate voting-residence address with the applicable election authority.
​
​Florida: driver’s license correspondence is handled through the Sumter County Tax Collector.
​Texas: driver’s license correspondence is handled through the Texas DPS office in Aransas County.

This address can be used to show your ties to your chosen state, even when you are not physically present in the state.
