Running a website from Lake Aluma: the Oklahoma rules

A few rules apply to any Lake Aluma business that sells or advertises online:

• A business entity doing business in Oklahoma under a name other than its legal name files a Trade Name Report with the Secretary of State ($25). ‘Business entity’ includes any unincorporated business, so an individual operating under a trade name files it with their own legal name as the legal name. 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
