Methods of Obtaining Permits
Wire Service
Permits may be received at local offices of the wire services or permit services.

These companies will charge a permittee the Louisiana permit fee established by law and a service charge approved by the Department.

All information required on a permit form must be provided to the Truck Permit Office or the Louisiana Truck Center before the permit will be issued.

The transmitted copy of the permit provided by the wire service or permit service must be carried at all times in the vehicle for which it was issued. The permit may be carried in the escort vehicle when applicable.
