The legal basics for Rosston businesses online

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

• 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
• Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Oklahoma calls that a trade name (d/b/a), and it has to be registered first. Title 18, Section 1140, Oklahoma Statutes
