HB 4304 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Revenue and taxation; exemption; trusts; effective date.

HB 4304 amends Oklahoma's tax exemption rules to clarify and expand which purchases by local governments and public agencies qualify for sales tax exemption. It specifically adds an exemption for sales related to "qualified federal facilities" under the Oklahoma Federal Facilities Development Act, where property ownership transfers immediately to a political subdivision. The bill also clarifies that government entities can designate agents to make tax-exempt purchases on their behalf, requires written certification for such purchases, and updates the list of eligible public authorities (including universities and special districts) that qualify for exemptions. This directly affects local governments, public agencies, and their contractors by reducing tax burdens on eligible purchases.
