Miami-Dade County Tax Collector Dariel Fernández announced new enforcement actions that include revoking business licenses for several companies accused of operating in violation of federal regulations related to Cuba.

According to Fernández, the measures are part of an ongoing review to ensure businesses in the county comply with state law and the local code.

Officials confirmed that the following companies lost their Local Business Tax Receipt (LBTR) in December after failing to respond to multiple requests for information:

Managua Travel Agency Inc., operating as Cuba Travel & Services, has locations in Hialeah, Homestead and Miami.

Fernández warned that continuing to operate without the license could result in fines and legal consequences.

As part of the same process, the Tax Collector’s Office issued 50 compliance notices to businesses whose activities could be tied to illegal trade with Cuba. That phase follows an earlier one in which 75 businesses were contacted.

According to officials, some businesses showed they were operating legally or confirmed they had no ties to Cuba, while others did not respond — prompting actions such as license revocations.

The notices are mandatory and require businesses to provide documentation demonstrating they are eligible to operate.

The actions are supported by Section 205.0532 of the Florida Statutes and Miami-Dade County Ordinance 93-45, which allows the county to revoke or deny business licenses to companies that do business with the Cuban government in violation of federal law. “The county will not allow businesses to operate outside the law,” Fernández said in a previous statement.

The tax collector said the review remains ongoing and that more businesses could be assessed in the coming weeks. He added that his office will continue enforcing the law consistently and without exception, with the goal of ensuring all companies meet the legal requirements.goal of ensuring all companies meet the legal requirements to operate in the county.
