Louisiana raises its filing fees on 1 October
Act 921 raises fees across the Commercial Division schedule, from formations to annual reports. Our Louisiana numbers already reflect the new schedule.
The increases come from Act 921 of the 2026 Regular Legislative Session and take effect on 1 October 2026. They run across the Commercial Division's whole schedule rather than one or two filings: formations, amendments, mergers, conversions, annual reports, and foreign qualification.
Individual increases are modest, roughly five to thirty dollars depending on the filing. Spread across every business filing in the state, the Legislative Fiscal Office put the revenue at about five million dollars a year.
Our Louisiana figures were updated to the new schedule ahead of the date, which is why a quote you take today still holds in October.
