Where to find legal notices for Kissimmee and Osceola County: FloridaPublicNotices.com, the city's notice page, and the clerk's foreclosure and tax deed sales.

Last checked Oct. 9, 2026. This page is an index, not an official publication. It points to where Kissimmee and Osceola County legal notices are published. A notice has legal effect only where the law requires it to be published.

Florida requires governments, courts and some private parties to publish notice of hearings, budgets, rezonings, foreclosures, name changes, fictitious business names and more. Most of those notices still run in a newspaper of general circulation, and newspaper notices are also collected on a statewide website.

Where to look first

  • Statewide notice site: FloridaPublicNotices.com, searchable by county
  • City of Kissimmee: the city’s Public Notices page; City Clerk 407-518-2328, City Hall, 101 Church St., fifth floor
  • Osceola County Clerk of the Circuit Court (foreclosures, tax deeds, official records): 407-742-3500, 2 Courthouse Square, Kissimmee

The statewide site

FloridaPublicNotices.com, run through the Florida Press Association, collects the legal notices that Florida newspapers publish. Search by county (Osceola) and by keyword, such as a street name, a case number or “Kissimmee.”

Online-only notices

Since 2022, section 50.0311, Florida Statutes, has let a city, county or school board publish legally required notices on its county’s designated public website instead of in a newspaper, if that costs less. Notices published that way must be searchable and show the date they were first posted. If a Kissimmee or Osceola County body uses that route, its notice will be on the county-designated site instead of in the paper, so check both.
