It's the normal overall sales tax for the parish 10.75%. For whatever reason this website decided to break down the sales tax on the receipt instead of behind the scenes like most businesses.

LA. How many other southern states have vehicle emissions tests?
LA doesn't require it. The Feds do and it's only required in five parishes.

Vehicle emissions testing is still required in five Louisiana parishes (Ascension, East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Livingston, and West Baton Rouge) because of federal air quality mandates under the Clean Air Act.

Sir this is the OT. You're not allowed to use facts or logic to point out the absurdity of most of the posts on this board.

No. 1, It's a federal mandate, not state.
No.2, It's not the state as a whole; it's by the Parish (or county) depending on how bad the air pollution is there. If it is bad, they have to do emissions tests as a way of making sure a person's car is not adding to the pollution problem (you know, the types with horrible smelling, white smoke exhaust). Baton Rouge area I believe has it, New Orleans does not.
No. 3, I know that in terms of other Southern States, at least the metro Atlanta area has it (Cobb, Fulton and DeKalb Counties for sure); when I lived there in the late 1980s and early 1990s you needed to get an emissions test as part of your inspection sticker ("brake tag" round these parts).
After posting I see armytiger beat me to it by a minute or 2!

Louisiana consistently ranks as about the worst red state on total tax burden. Factor in how poor the average Louisianan is, and it has to be the worst. Only to be outdone by place like California, New York, and New Jersey

Good news it that it should go away in a year or two.

Damn, that's 11.42%.
Texas law limits any sales tax, in any combination, not to exceed 8.25%.
