Louisiana Warehouse - LACC Bond
Overview
Get bonded through the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry and operate your warehouse business with the compliance credentials Louisiana law demands. This surety bond protects agricultural commodity depositors by guaranteeing your warehouse meets its financial obligations. Operators of public warehouses storing grain, cotton, and other commodities covered under LACC regulations need this bond before they can legally receive, store, or issue receipts for those goods.

Who Needs This Bond?
Louisiana-licensed commodity warehouse operators are the primary applicants for this bond. If you run a public warehouse in Louisiana that stores agricultural commodities and issues warehouse receipts under the Louisiana Agricultural Chemistry and Seed Commission framework, this bond is required of you. Owners and operators seeking or renewing a warehouse license from the state must have this bond on file before the license is issued or continued. This is a statewide requirement — it applies regardless of which parish your warehouse facility is located in.
What is this Bond For?
This bond protects depositors — farmers, producers, and commodity owners — who entrust their goods to your licensed warehouse. It guarantees that you will properly account for stored commodities, honor warehouse receipts you issue, and meet the financial obligations Louisiana imposes on licensed warehouse operators. If you fail to deliver stored goods, issue fraudulent receipts, or otherwise breach your duties, the bond provides a financial remedy for harmed depositors. It is not insurance for your business — it is a financial guarantee made to the state and the public.
When is it Required?
Applying for a Louisiana warehouse license is the moment this bond becomes mandatory. Before the state issues or renews your license to operate as a public warehouse for agricultural commodities, proof of a valid surety bond must be submitted. If you are expanding your storage operations or adding a new facility under your existing license, additional bonding may be required at that time. Do not plan to receive or store commodities and issue receipts until this bond is secured and on file.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is a statewide Louisiana requirement enforced at the state level. It applies to any public warehouse in Louisiana that stores agricultural commodities and operates under the jurisdiction of the relevant Louisiana state agricultural regulatory authority. There is no parish-by-parish variation — the bond requirement follows the state license itself.
