HB 3930 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Service animals; definition; written notice; fines; effective date.

HB 3930 clarifies that only trained dogs qualify as service animals under Oklahoma law, explicitly excluding emotional support and therapy animals. It requires businesses selling or providing emotional support animals (including verification or ID tags) to give written notices stating these animals do not grant service animal rights. The bill imposes fines of $100-$250 for first violations and $500 for repeat violations for misrepresenting emotional support animals as service animals. This directly affects businesses selling emotional support animals and consumers who might falsely claim service animal status.

MINOR

The bill text was reformatted from an 'Engrossed' version to a 'Floor Version' intended for the House of Representatives. While the core legal language regarding service animals and emotional support animals remains identical, the header information was updated to reflect the current legislative session and committee status.

TECHNICAL

The document header was changed from 'ENGROSSED HOUSE' to 'HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES - FLOOR VERSION' and updated to reflect the 2nd Session of the 60th Legislature (2026).

The page headers were updated to include 'HB3930 HFLR' and a note indicating that bold face text denotes Committee Amendments, replacing the previous 'ENGR. H. B. NO. 3930' text.

The Senate approval date line was removed, as this version represents the bill before it has passed the Senate.
