Louisiana CPA Firm Renewal — What the Firm Itself Must File

Louisiana firm registration/permit — not individual license renewal

A CPA firm's own registration or permit to practice renews separately from any individual staff CPA's license — and it's usually the filing that falls through the cracks, because it belongs to whoever handles firm admin, not to a specific licensee tracking their own renewal. Here's exactly when Louisiana's firm-level filing is due.

CPA Firm Permit

December 31, 2026

Same annual, December 31 calendar cycle as individual licenses -- codified in La. Admin. Code tit. 46, Part XIX, § 1501(D)(1): permits 'expire on the last day of each calendar year' (renewals due by Dec 31, delinquent if not renewed before Feb 1). Renewal window opens November 1; a $300 delinquent fee applies after January 31.

Always confirm with the official state board before relying on this date. License requirements and deadlines can change.

Tracking this for more than one firm, or want someone else watching it?

Any individual CPA at your firm can already get free renewal reminders for their own license. What DeadlineRadar's firm tier adds is the view your admin doesn't get from 20 separate free sign-ups: one place to see the whole roster's status — including this firm-level filing — not 20 inboxes to hope someone's watching.
