Visit the LSBPSE eLicensure Portal at lsbpselicense.com where Security Officers, Managers, Qualifying Agents, and Company Owners apply for, manage, and receive their respective licenses and registrations.
Please note – in Louisiana, security guards are not licensed. They are registered to work for licensed security companies that have been vetted and licensed through this regulatory agency. A security guard who is not actively employed and working for a licensed security company cannot work in the state of Louisiana.
If this is your first time visiting the portal:
Click “FORGOT – USERNAME” and, then, enter your date of birth, social security number, and last name. This will either locate your existing eLicensure profile or let you know that a profile does not exist. If one does not, you will be allowed to create an account and set up your profile.
You must have a valid email address to receive your login information.

What do I have to do to renew my LA State Board of Private Security Examiners unarmed license and how much do I have to pay and they were expired on March 31st 2022?
You need to be active and working with a licensed company to renew your guard registration. Your guard registration is only valid if you are employed by a licensed company.

We are an out of state company, how do we go about being licensed in the state of Louisiana?
Mr. Petrie – I’ve forwarded your contact information on to our Company & Instructor License Section to help you with this. You can also contact the section by email or calling (225) 272-2310, ext. 223.
I am currently a level 4 security officer in the state of Texas. I am also a level 3 firearms and level 3 classroom instructor. Do, I still need to take all of the prescribed training in Louisiana or will my Texas training suffice?
Per La. R.S. 37:3278(B), “All applicants for licensure, regardless of whether the applicant holds a valid license in a state which has comparable licensing requirements, are required to successfully pass the examination for licensure.” You will still need to take the training required by the Board to register as a security officer in Louisiana.
However, in an emergency situation, if you pass an initial background check, you will be able to work before your training is complete. Apply for the Event Temp Registration on the online portal if you want to come and work disaster relief.
Good morning.
