    If I am operating within the guidelines (Sales are limited to $20,000 per year) of the Louisiana Cottage Food Law, am I required to collect, file or claim taxes?

    I don’t know, but it’s quite possible that you need to collect some kind of sales tax. You need to check with your parish and see if there are exemptions from collecting tax on some types of food sales. State sales tax is often exempted for food that is consumed off the premises, but the details of those exemptions can get complicated. Have you read this yet? http://forrager.com/faq/#sales-tax

    I should add that you’ll definitely need to file income taxes at the end of the year.
