HB 1767 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Counties and county officers; county clerks; credit card; forms; notary; effective date.

HB 1767, which failed in committee on April 8, 2025, proposed requiring Oklahoma county offices and courts to: (1) accept credit card payments for most transactions (with service fees permitted), (2) provide all necessary forms free of charge both in-person and online, (3) maintain a notary available during business hours without fees, and (4) adopt standardized forms developed by the Attorney General by January 1, 2027. If enacted, these provisions would directly affect county offices (including clerks, treasurers, and courthouses) and citizens interacting with them. The bill would have standardized county services while eliminating fees for forms and notary services, with an effective date of November 1, 2025. However, it did not advance beyond the committee stage.
