Oklahoma and federal rules for small business websites

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• The name on your website and your sign has to be either your legal name or a registered trade name (d/b/a). Title 18, Section 1140, Oklahoma Statutes
• Oklahoma’s state sales and use tax rate is 4.5% of gross receipts from the sale or rental of tangible personal property, and counties and municipalities add their own rates. Since August 2024, food and food ingredients are exempt from the 4.5% state rate but still subject to local rates. Oklahoma Tax Commission
