Higher tag agent fees for drivers

Louisiana public license tag agents can charge up to $27 per authorized transaction, up from $23. The same increase covers registration status checks and reinstating driving or registration privileges revoked for missing required liability insurance or proof. These convenience charges are added to registration taxes, sales taxes, and other allowed fees; agents keep the full charge. Sellers can also collect the convenience charge on retail sales, in addition to other fees allowed by law. Agents must disclose charges immediately before starting the transaction and post them clearly in their offices. The law allows, but does not require, agents to charge the maximum.
