Boats
Any boat used in Louisiana waters must be registered with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LWF). To do that, you will need to verify that all state, municipal, school board, and/or parish sales taxes have been paid. The Louisiana Department of Revenue (LDR) can verify state taxes have been paid with Form R-1331 - Boat Registration Tax Payment Certification. Form R-1331 requires a description of the boat and information about the buyer and seller. LDR will calculate any taxes owed based on the documentation provided with Form R-1331. Please have Form R-1331 completed and signed by the Louisiana Department of Revenue BEFORE contacting Assumption Parish Sales Tax.
