The most popular way to become an organ donor is by signing the organ donor card on the back of your Louisiana driver's license. You may obtain a donor application at any Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) location.
Anyone can become a donor, but those under the age of 18 must have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.
In the event of your death, all donation expenses are paid for by the Transplant Program. Organ removal will not interfere with funeral and burial arrangements, nor will it disfigure your body.

Become a donor online by completing the registry form through the Louisiana Organ and Tissue Donor Registry.
Issues to Consider
Louisiana stresses the importance of discussing your organ donor decision with your family members, so that there won't be any confusion at the time of your death.
