The title compound, (C 6 H 14 N 2 )[LaCl 4 (H 2 O) 4 ]Cl, is built up from organic cations, [La(H 2 O) 4 Cl 4 ] − complex anions and uncoordinated chloride ions. The previously unseen rare‐earth‐containing complex ion is irregular in shape. A network of O—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds helps to establish the structure. Prominent among these are two well defined trifurcated N—H⋯(Cl,Cl,Cl) interactions. The La atom, one Cl atom, two N atoms and two C atoms possess site symmetry m .
