AI Notice

Trajan is an AI assistant. Its answers are generated by a large language model (Claude, by Anthropic) that is instructed to answer only from an indexed library of Louisiana tax law — the full text of La. R.S. Title 47, LAC Title 61, and the Department of Revenue’s published bulletins, rulings, rulemaking record, and FAQ, and to cite the specific source behind every legal or factual claim.

What it can and cannot do

• It explains rules, permits, and procedures in plain language, with citations you can open.
• It cannot read your account, check a filing or refund, take a payment, or submit anything on your behalf — account-specific matters route to LaTAP (latap.revenue.louisiana.gov).
• It can make mistakes. Verify anything consequential against the cited source, and treat nothing here as legal advice or as a ruling of the Louisiana Department of Revenue.

Data

Questions you ask are processed to generate the answer and to improve the service's content coverage. Do not include Social Security numbers, account numbers, or other sensitive personal information in your questions.
