Notes regarding deadlines

Reports are due at 11:59PM on their respective due date.

All lobbying reports are due on or before the 25th of each month pursuant to La. R.S. 24:55B, 49:76B, and 33:9666B, unless noted otherwise. The due dates above reflect the exact due date when the 25th falls on a weekend or holiday.

If you register on any date during a reporting period, then your first lobbying expenditure report will be for that reporting period. (For example, if you register on the last day in June, your first lobbying report is due for the month of June.)

If you terminate on any date during a reporting period, then your final lobbying expenditure report will be for that period. (For example, if you terminate on October 14, 2026, your final report will be for the month of October 2026 and will be due on November 25, 2026.)
