Does Travelencia require Seller of Travel number (SOT)

There has been some discussion about whether or not Travelencia requires a Seller of Travel number (SOT).

Initially I checked the Florida Attorney General’s website who referred me to the Florida Department of Consumer Services.

My intention was to establish what the rules are for a Seller of Travel. I read both Florida’s and California’s legislation and it was clear to me the seller was the one who accepted payment and arranged the bookings. The purpose of the laws is to protect the consumer and their funds. However, since I am not a lawyer, it is easy to misinterpret or miss something.

During the call I was surprised when she looked up Hemisphere Travel and reported to me that they were listed as exempt. This does not mean that Hemisphere is exempt in other states but it does tell you that Hemisphere at least qualified for a exemption in Florida.

The general concept of a Seller of Travel is someone who takes consideration, your money, with the promise of delivering some form of travel. The rules also cover those who sell travel certificates or coupons and travel clubs.
