Baton Rouge businesses — when they opened, and when they closed
Type a business name or an account number. 63,179 business accounts, open and closed, in the Parish file of October 2, 2026. No sole proprietors.
Opening an account for a customer? A dated registration report ($19) — or a whole list checked.
What this is
A business operating in East Baton Rouge Parish registers with the Finance Department for the occupational license tax and the sales tax. The Parish publishes every account, open or closed, with the date the business opened and the date it closed. This site makes that file searchable and lists the openings and closings of the last months.
Who uses it
- Suppliers and landlords — is this business registered and open, and since when?
- Sales teams and brokers — the businesses that opened in the last months.
- Owners — your own record as the Parish publishes it.
What it is not
Not the City-Parish, and not a license. Sole proprietors are left out of this site. The file says that an account closed, not why. Many accounts belong to businesses located outside Louisiana that sell into the Parish.
