License and Permit Extensions

NEW ORLEANS — The City of New Orleans has announced that, in order to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on short-term rental (STR) operations, all short-term-rental licenses and permits that expire June 21, 2020, through Aug. 20, 2020, are hereby extended for two (2) additional months from the expiration date listed on the face of the permit.


Applications may be submitted by email to str@nola.gov and will be kept on file in the order received until capacity is restored.


STR permits with original expiration dates between March 20, 2020, and June 20, 2020, permits were previously extended for three (3) months from the expiration date listed on the face of the permit. These permits are hereby extended for two (2) additional months from the extended expiration date.


For example:

  • Permits or licenses that expired on March 25, 2020, originally were extended to not expire until June 25, 2020. These permits and licenses shall not expire until Aug. 25, 2020.
  • Permits or licenses that expired on May 15, 2020, originally were extended to not expire until Aug. 15, 2020. These permits and licenses shall not expire until October 15, 2020.
  • Permits or licenses that expired on June 22, 2020, shall not expire until Aug. 22, 2020.
