HostReadyShreveport does not appear to have a city-level STR ordinance in our data, and we have no record of a Louisiana statewide preemption law governing short-term rentals. Louisiana applies a 4.45% state sales tax to lodging, with parish and local taxes added on top. Because local rules can still apply and may change, contact the City of Shreveport and Caddo Parish directly to confirm any permit, zoning, or tax obligations specific to your property.
Licensing and Permits
Shreveport requires hosts to obtain an STR license or permit before listing their property on platforms like Airbnb or VRBO. An inspection is required as part of the permitting process.
