Bitcoin in Louisiana: the licensing picture

LegalVirtual Currency Business License via OFIState guide reviewed 2026-08-23

Bitcoin is legal in Louisiana. The state regulates exchanges through the Virtual Currency Businesses Act (La. R.S. 6:1381 and following), enacted in 2020 and administered by the Louisiana Office of Financial Institutions: companies doing virtual currency business with residents need a Virtual Currency Business License, while a company whose annual Louisiana volume stays below $35,000 may file a limited activity registration with OFI instead of licensing. Federal rules, including FinCEN registration for money services businesses, apply on top.
