How to register your car in Louisiana
Car owners who want to import an out-of-state car into Louisiana have a 30-day deadline to meet documentation requirements and submit their vehicle to the appropriate testing and inspections.
This is plenty of time to prepare properly, which is fantastic news for those who want to take advantage of the local or near-state car market.
- The registration process happens through your local Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV), and it's quite easy.
- The first thing that is recommended for car owners to get is liability insurance since Louisiana is an at-fault state - the minimum coverage requirement is 15/30/25 with additional UM/ UIM coverage, which is automatically included in the plan and coverage.
- There are smog inspections in certain parts of the state, particularly only in Baton Rouge and in particular the Ascension, East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Livingston, and West Baton Rouge parishes. All other locations are exempt from submitting out-of-state vehicles to emissions inspection.
- There is a limited safety inspection for the most crucial safety components like brakes, stop and headlights, suspension, etc. Some parishes require in-person VIN verification at your local OMV when registering an out-of-state motor vehicle without a clear and valid electronic record.
- You can check if your vehicle has a good electronic record through free services like CARFAX by submitting your car’s 17-digit VIN located on the title.
- Aside from these preliminary tests, you need to submit a valid ID, bill of sale or invoice, proof of liability insurance, out-of-state title in your name, current registration papers, odometer disclosure statement, and a completed DPSMV 1799 Form and any applicable lienholder information if the vehicle is being financed by a third party.
The associated costs of the registration process for vehicles in Louisiana depend on the vehicle’s selling price, weight, and value, plus any local handling charges and use taxes.

Why Should You Choose Us? What Makes SGT Auto Transport one the best Car Shipping companies in Louisiana?
When you need an Louisiana car shipping company, there are all kinds of solid reasons to turn to SGT Auto Transport first:
When you’re looking for a car shipping company in Louisiana, we know you have several choices you can pick from. We tend to think there are some things that give SGT Auto Transport an edge when you stack us up against the others.
We know that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for getting a vehicle shipped to its destination. That’s why we’ve lined up a number of different shipping methods for different vehicles and circumstances.
In other words, we can personalize and customize your shipping method for what will be the best fit for you and your vehicle.
We’re all car enthusiasts ourselves here at SGT Auto Transport. We have a great sense of respect for the connection between vehicles and their owners, one that goes way deeper than just the car’s resale value.
That’s why we show the same care in handling and shipping that we would if that vehicle belonged to one of us.
Types of Vehicle Transportation Services we provide in Louisiana
Here are the options you can choose from when you need to ship your vehicle:
Open car transport: if your budget is a priority, this is the way to go. With open car transport, your vehicle is loaded onto a double decker trailer rig along with several others, like the kind of transport you see delivering new cars to dealerships. Open car transport does leave your vehicle exposed to the elements, but it’s by far the most cost-effective option.
Enclosed car transport: this is a good choice for rare, high-dollar, antique or very fragile vehicles, where you’d like enhanced protection from weather and prying eyes. Enclosed car transport means your vehicle is loaded into a closed trailer and locked in for its journey; it does come at a premium price, but it means an extra degree of security.
Cross country car transport: obviously the farther a vehicle has to be transported, the more expensive it gets, since cost/mile is a big factor in the shipping equation. With cross country car transport for very long distances, though, cost/mile starts to drop, making it a great value.
Express car shipping: there’s a lot that has to be sorted out to ship a vehicle, and that’s why we always prefer it if you can give us at least a couple of weeks lead time before your auto shipping job. We know that’s not always doable, though, and that’s why we offer express car shipping for last-minute needs
Guaranteed pickup: we want to make things as easy as possible for customers, and our guaranteed pickup means that your pickup driver will be at your location at a specified time and date to load up your vehicle and get down the road.
Prepare Your Vehicle for a cross-country Auto Transportation to or from Louisiana
Here are some ways to make sure your vehicle pickup is easy and seamless:
Try to ship your vehicle with a quarter tank of fuel or less. Curb weight is a big part of rate calculations in the logistics business, and less fuel means less weight.
Don’t forget to get a copy of the vehicle’s ignition key to the transport driver.
Please be sure your car’s headlights and taillights work, that the battery is charged and that all four tires are fully inflated.
Give your car a good wash job first. The transport driver will fill out a vehicle condition report for his bill of lading and will ask you to do the same; it’s a lot easier to spot dings, scrapes or minor imperfections on a clean car.

Top 5 hints for transporting/moving to Louisiana
After moving to the state of Louisiana, you have 30 days to get a new driver’s license. You’ll have to meet visual and medical requirements. Out-of-state vehicles have to be registered and titled within 30 days.
Louisiana is often bombarded with hurricanes and severe weather, many of which can cause flooding throughout the state’s southern half. Heat and humidity are also weather conditions that take some getting used to.
If you’re not a fan of little critters, you might want to reconsider moving to Louisiana. It’s home to lots of four-legged and six-legged creatures, but they seem to be bigger, hungrier, and thirstier in this state. In spring, for example, swarms of Formosan termites emerge and cluster around any lights they can find.
Louisiana’s economy is still recovering, but things are on the up. Much of the industry in Louisiana is concentrated in and around industries related to their natural resources, such as agriculture, oil, chemicals, and commercial fishing.
According to US News, Louisiana’s health care is one of the worst in the nation. Despite this, the state still tried to develop and enhance the health care system.
