Current through Vol. 42, No. 1, September 16, 2024
(a) Motor vehicles to be registered; license tag required; title. Every motor vehicle, except salvage and junked vehicles, vehicles on used car dealer's lots for sale and vehicles assigned to charitable organizations licensed through the Oklahoma Secretary of State's office, is required to be registered and a license tag displayed on the rear bumper. The type of registration required depends on the type of vehicle and, in some cases, its use. A vehicle cannot be registered without an Oklahoma title or proof that such Oklahoma title exists and is in the name of the registrant. Proof of previous year's registration must be obtained before renewing registration on any non-salvaged vehicle. A current mail-out registration notice is considered proof for either purpose. A vehicle subject to a lien may obtain a thirty-day temporary plate from a Licensed Agent at the time of initial purchase.
(b) Expiration; renewal; early renewal. Registration may not be renewed before the first day of the month preceding expiration.
(c) Registration and licensing of leased vehicle. An individual leasing a vehicle may make application for any special tag or registration rate that he or she is entitled to. A copy of the lease agreement, listing the applicant as lessee, must be submitted and attached to Service Oklahoma's copy of the paperwork.
(d) Information required from registrant. Upon every application for registration of a vehicle in this state, the vehicle owner shall provide to the registering Licensed Operator the following information:
(e) Proper entry of required information. It shall be the duty of the registering Licensed Operator to properly enter the driver license number or Federal Employer Identification Number of the vehicle owner in the Motor Vehicle computer file record at time of registration of the vehicle.
