How Louisiana General Contractor license verification works
A General Contractor in Louisiana is licensed by the LA Contractor Licensing Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.
Fields returned for this board: license_number license_type status effective expires first_issued classifications qualifying_parties insurances business mailing_address phone email.
Board note: LA-LSLBC: Board's own contractor search (ASP.NET MVC partials, plain HTTPS, no captcha/token). POST /Public/_DetailedSearch/ ByNumber (account digits) | ByQP (qualifying party last/first) | ByName; GET /Public/_DisplayOnlineDetails/?key=. Louisiana licenses the business; the person is matched as Qualifying Party on the classifications (electrician/plumber/hvac = ELECTRICAL / PLUMBING / MECHANICAL classes under a Commercial or Residential License Certificate). Statuses Active / Terminated.
