Registration periods
Official statutory text
A. Twelve registration periods shall be established for
vehicles required to be registered on a staggered basis. The
registration periods shall start on the first day of each calendar
month and shall end on the last day of that month. Unless otherwise
provided, all such vehicles where the date of execution of transfer
of ownership occurs in this state at any time during a calendar
month shall be subject to registration and payment of the fee for
the registration period commencing the first day of the month of
such date of execution of transfer.
B. 1. A person who registers more than one vehicle may have
all of such vehicles initially registered at the same time or at
separate times. Any person who obtains a vehicle may, upon
registration, have the registration period adjusted to allow future
registration of all such vehicles at the same period or at a
different period.
2. Upon the payment of a five-dollar one-time convenience fee,
any two or more noncommercial vehicles owned by the same person and
previously registered in this state may be registered at the same
time regardless of the month or months in which the vehicles were
previously registered. The month in which the noncommercial
vehicles are newly registered shall be the month in which the
registration is renewed annually. If a noncommercial vehicle is
registered pursuant to this subsection in the same calendar year in
which it was previously registered, license and registration fees
shall be prorated to account for the difference between the previous
renewal month and the new renewal month and those fees shall be due
at the time of registration pursuant to this subsection. Of the
monies collected pursuant to the convenience fee created by this
paragraph, Two Dollars and fifty cents ($2.50) shall be deposited to
the credit of the Oklahoma Tax Commission Fund created pursuant to
Section 221 of Title 62 of the Oklahoma Statutes and Two Dollars and
fifty cents ($2.50) shall be retained by the motor license agent.
C. If a special or personalized license plate is issued
pursuant to Sections 1135.1 through 1135.7 of this title, any
registration fee required for such plate and the fee required
pursuant to subsection A of Section 1132 of this title shall be
remitted at the same time and subject to a single registration
period. The Oklahoma Tax Commission shall promulgate rules
establishing a method for making required fee adjustments when a
special or personalized license plate is obtained during a twelve-
month period for which a registration fee has already been remitted
pursuant to this subsection. The combination of fees in a single
