The bill amends section 539.001 of the Florida Statutes, specifically regarding the pawnbroker transaction forms. It authorizes these forms to be completed in either a digital or printed format, enhancing flexibility for pawnbrokers in how they document transactions. The existing requirement for the forms to be a specific size (8 1/2 inches x 11 inches) and to include necessary information remains unchanged, but the new language allows for the use of digital formats alongside traditional printed ones.

The effective date for this change is set for July 1, 2025. This amendment aims to modernize the pawnbroking process by accommodating technological advancements and improving the efficiency of transaction documentation.
