  2. Louisiana Tax Free Shopping

    Some merchants in Louisiana participate in a program called Louisiana Tax Free Shopping. Look for the snazzy red-and-blue ‘tax free’ logo in the window or on the sign of the store. Usually these stores specialize in the kinds of impulse purchases people are likely to make while on vacation. In these stores, present a passport to verify you are not a US citizen and request a voucher as you make your purchase. Reimbursement centers are located in the DowntownRefundCenter and the main lobby of the LouisArmstrongAirport.
