Sales tax in Concordia Parish, Louisiana
There is no single sales tax rate in Concordia Parish. It runs from 8.75% to 11.75% depending on the exact address, because cities and special districts inside the county levy their own on top of the 5% state rate. The 5% state rate applies everywhere in the county; everything above that depends on where you are standing.
What is the sales tax rate in Concordia Parish?
| Louisiana state rate | 5% |
|---|---|
| Local tax applying countywide | 2.25% |
| Lowest combined rate in the county | 8.75% |
| Highest combined rate in the county | 11.75% |
The two combined figures are the lowest and highest totals found anywhere inside the county. They are not a state rate plus a county rate added together, and adding the rows above will not reproduce them, because cities and special districts levy in between.
Why the rate here is not the whole story
Louisiana charges 5 percent statewide, and every local sales tax is levied and collected locally rather than by the state, by the parish school board, the parish governing authority, the sheriff's law enforcement district, municipalities and economic development districts, so the parish line is not the tax boundary. 2.25 percent applies everywhere in the parish, levied by the school board at 2 percent and a hospital district at 0.25 percent. No one rate covers the whole parish: the floor of 8.75 percent is at Ferriday and the ceiling of 11.75 percent is at VREDD. That ceiling applies only inside a single development or annexation district rather than across a whole town, so it must not be read as the rate for the surrounding area.
How do I find the exact rate for an address in Concordia Parish?
Because the rate changes within the county, an address is the only way to get it right. Use Louisiana's own lookup. A vendor's calculator is not the state speaking.
Who has to collect sales tax in Concordia Parish?
A seller with a physical presence in Louisiana collects at the rate for the address where the sale takes place. A remote seller collects once it passes Louisiana's economic nexus threshold, which is a separate question from the rate and is covered on our sales tax nexus checker. Marketplace facilitators generally collect on behalf of their sellers.
