Yes. The STR license application requires proof of valid general liability insurance with coverage of $500,000 or more, submitted along with the $750 fee, proof of ownership, and parish approvals.
The parish application states applicants must submit "proof of valid, general liability insurance with coverage of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) or more and approval from PMZ, JPSO, and JP Attorney's Office." This insurance proof is required both at initial application and, along with the $750 fee, at each annual renewal by November 1. The application also requires a copy of the establishment's brochure and proof of ownership (or an affidavit authorizing the local responsible party). Incorporated cities within the parish may impose their own insurance requirements.
An application lacking the required $500,000 liability coverage will not be approved; lapsed coverage can support revocation of the STR lodging license.
