Service Oklahoma; defining terms; exempting certain records from notarization requirement; effective date.

HB 2996 removes the notarization requirement for certain electronic records submitted to Oklahoma's Service Oklahoma by authorized entities. It specifically exempts vehicle titling, registration, and other electronic documents submitted by eligible entities - such as auto dealers, rental agencies, salvage pools, and lienholders - from needing notarization under Oklahoma law. The bill defines "eligible entity" as organizations authorized by Service Oklahoma to handle these transactions, and clarifies this exemption applies only to records submitted electronically by those specific entities. The change takes effect November 1, 2026, streamlining electronic record submissions for businesses in the auto and vehicle services sector.
