The address search lets you enter a street and find offenders registered within a radius.

You can search by internet names or email addresses, and by phone number if you have one to check.

Profiles in the LSP registry include a photo, full name and aliases, date of birth, current address, offense details, risk level, compliance status, and vehicle information.

Louisiana uses a three-tier system. Tier I means registering for 15 years with annual check-ins. Tier II is 25 years with check-ins every six months. Tier III, covering the most serious offenses, requires lifetime registration and check-ins every 90 days. The court assigns the tier at sentencing based on the offense type and criminal history.

Under RS 15:542, offenders must report changes within 3 business days. This covers new addresses, job changes, school changes, new vehicles, and updates to phone numbers or online accounts including email and social media.
