In Louisiana, access to criminal records is restricted to individuals named on the records, approved public entities, and employers. Arrest information, including offenders' names and charges, is included in LSP Background Checks. Parish residents can get copies of criminal records by mail or online. To submit mail requests, eligible applicants must download and complete the General Disclosure Form or other BCII Forms depending on the request purpose. The LSP Bureau charges a non-refundable $26 processing fee for each request, which must be paid by money order, cashier's check, or business check made payable to the Louisiana State Police. For full criminal history records, requesters must include copies of valid IDs and fingerprinting cards from the parish Sheriff, police departments, or the nearest IdentoGO Center. Mail all required documents and payment to:

Bureau Of Criminal Identification And Information

Online requests can be submitted via the LSP Internet Background Check. Users must create an account, verify their identity, and submit the required details through the secure portal. After creating an account successfully, requesters can conduct name-based search by providing the subject's name and other identifying details. Online requests are completed in 14 business days, while mail requests may take two to three weeks.
