HB 1378 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Revenue and taxation; sales tax exemptions; agriculture; definition to include timber; effective date.

HB 1378 would have expanded Oklahoma's agricultural tax exemptions to include timber products by amending the definition of "agricultural products" in state tax law. This change would have exempted sales of timber (such as from timber harvesting and processing) from the state sales tax, directly affecting timber producers, landowners, and businesses involved in timber sales. The bill amended Section 1358 of Oklahoma's tax code to explicitly include timber within the existing exemptions for farm products, livestock, feed, equipment, and other agricultural inputs. The bill was vetoed by the Governor on June 10, 2025, and did not become law.
