What the figures are

This page reproduces the parishwide millage the Louisiana Tax Commission prints for each parish in Table 47 of its 2025 annual report: the levies that apply across a whole parish. It is not the total rate inside a city, town or special district, whose own levies are added on top; the Commission lists those separately, levy by levy. Period: calendar year 2025 (2026 for the parish of Orleans), from the Louisiana Tax Commission's Annual Report 2025, dated May 4, 2026.

Whole mills. The table prints every parish's millage as a whole number, with no decimals and no unit sentence; a mill is one dollar per $1,000 of assessed value. (Annual Report 2025, Table No. 47)

Orleans. Orleans is printed for calendar year 2026, in five rows by municipal district (1st, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th). (Annual Report 2025, Table No. 47)

Parishwide only: municipal and special district millages are added on top inside cities and districts, so the rate on a bill is usually higher than the figure here.
The TOTALS row is shown as printed (105); the table does not say how it is computed. 4 neighbouring rows print the same whole number; with whole numbers that is expected and they are shown as printed.

Rows shown as printed but checked

Every row is shown exactly as the source prints it. This one failed one of this page's checks, so it is marked † and left out of rankings, medians and the drawings; it was not changed.

St. Tammany: Prints 7 parishwide mills, less than a quarter of the median parish (107); the next lowest prints 48. Shown as printed and not ranked; the parish's own millage list is the more direct source.

Louisiana assessment percentages were not read from an official source for this page, and these are parishwide levies only, so no example bill is computed.

How to appeal an assessment in Louisiana

Inspect the assessment lists during the public exposure period: fifteen days, beginning no earlier than August 15 and ending no later than September 15 (R.S. 47:1992(F)); Orleans has its own schedule. (source)
File a complaint with the board of review: no later than seven days before the board's public hearing (R.S. 47:1992(C)); in Orleans, received by the assessor's office no later than three business days after the last day the lists are exposed (R.S. 47:1992(G)). (source)
Appeal the board of review's determination to the Louisiana Tax Commission: under the Commission's rules; the statute sets no deadline (R.S. 47:1992(D), 47:1989(B)). (source)
Appeal the Commission's decision to district court: within thirty days (R.S. 47:1989(D)(1)). (source)

Read from the Louisiana Revised Statutes on the Legislature's site. The Commission's own rules set the timing of the appeal to it. Sources: La. R.S. 47:1992, Board of review; hearing complaints (Louisiana State Legislature), read October 27, 2026; La. R.S. 47:1989, Louisiana Tax Commission review (Louisiana State Legislature), read October 27, 2026. The official notice and the body hearing the appeal govern the dates; this is not legal advice.

Questions

What is the property tax rate in Louisiana?

Louisiana publishes no single rate. This page reproduces the parishwide millage the Louisiana Tax Commission prints for each parish in Table 47 of its 2025 annual report: the levies that apply across a whole parish. For 2025 it runs from 48 mills in East Feliciana to 152 mills in St. Bernard; the median parish or Orleans district is 107 mills.

Which Louisiana parish or Orleans district has the highest parishwide millage?

St. Bernard, at 152 mills, among the 67 parishes and Orleans districts ranked here; East Feliciana is lowest at 48 mills. St. Tammany is shown as printed but not ranked, because its row fails a check described on this page.

Is the parishwide millage the rate on my tax bill?

No. It is the parishwide millage the Louisiana Tax Commission prints for each parish in Table 47 of its 2025 annual report: the levies that apply across a whole parish. Parishwide only: municipal and special district millages are added on top inside cities and districts, so the rate on a bill is usually higher than the figure here.
