Okla. Stat. tit. 47, § 47-1117

A. Unless otherwise provided by law, any person purchasing a

new or used manufactured home or owning a manufactured home which

has not been registered in this state shall register such

manufactured home pursuant to the provisions of subsection B of this

section and obtain a certificate of title as provided in Section

1105 of this title.

B. The application for registration and certificate of title

shall be made to Service Oklahoma or to a licensed operator. Such

application shall be accompanied by the registration fees required

by Section 1135 of this title and any penalties thereon. The

application for registration and certificate of title shall include:

1. The name of the owner of the manufactured home;

2. The serial number or identification number of the

manufactured home;

3. A legal description or address of the location;

4. The actual retail selling price of the manufactured home

excluding Oklahoma taxes; and

5. Any other information which Service Oklahoma deems to be

necessary.

The application for registration shall also include the school

district in which the manufactured home is located or is to be

located.

Upon the filing of an application for registration and

certificate of title, the payment of fees as required by Section

1133 of this title, the excise tax as provided for in Section 2104.3

of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes and the furnishing of proof

satisfactory to Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator that all ad

valorem taxes have been paid, Service Oklahoma or a licensed

operator shall assign the manufactured home a distinctive number and

shall issue to the owner of the manufactured home a certificate of

title, a manufactured home registration receipt, Manufactured Home

Registration Decal, a vehicle registration decal and an excise tax

receipt. The certificate of title number shall be recorded in the

computer data system required by Section 1113 of this title in order

to collect and store information concerning the subsequent ad

valorem tax payments for such manufactured home. The receipts and

Manufactured Home Registration Decal shall be permanently attached

to the title by Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator. An excise

tax receipt so attached shall constitute evidence of payment of the

excise tax required by the provisions of Section 2104.3 of Title 68

of the Oklahoma Statutes. Thereafter, the owner of a manufactured

home shall be assessed the ad valorem tax as provided in Section

2801 et seq. of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes. A duplicate

Manufactured Home Registration Decal shall be affixed inside the

window nearest the front door of the manufactured home before it is

moved upon any public roadway.

C. If an applicant has satisfactorily shown to Service Oklahoma

or to a licensed operator that the applicant owns the manufactured

home sought to be registered, but is unable to produce the

documentary evidence of title, Service Oklahoma or a licensed

operator may issue a manufactured home registration receipt,

Manufactured Home Registration Decal, vehicle registration decal and

excise tax receipt to the applicant. In such instances, Service

Oklahoma or a licensed operator shall indicate on the receipt given

the applicant the reason for not issuing a certificate of title. It

shall be the duty of the applicant to immediately take all necessary

steps to obtain an Oklahoma certificate of title. It shall be

unlawful for such applicant to sell the manufactured home until such

title has been obtained by the applicant. After receiving a

certificate of title, the applicant shall then take such title,

registration and excise tax receipts and Manufactured Home

Registration Decal to Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator for

permanent attachment of the receipts to the title.

D. The Department of Public Safety shall issue a permit

immediately to the holder of a perfected security interest or
by the applicant. After receiving a

certificate of title, the applicant shall then take such title,

registration and excise tax receipts and Manufactured Home

Registration Decal to Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator for

permanent attachment of the receipts to the title.

D. The Department of Public Safety shall issue a permit

immediately to the holder of a perfected security interest or

licensed representative thereof, if the holder or representative is

bonded by the state, to move the manufactured home to a secure

location with a repossession affidavit. However, all excise taxes

and ad valorem taxes due on such a manufactured home shall be

required to be paid within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the

permit. A certificate of title for a manufactured home shall not be

issued pursuant to a repossession prior to the furnishing of proof

satisfactory to Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator that all ad

valorem taxes due have been paid.

E. The Department shall issue a permit immediately to a

licensed manufactured home dealer to move a trade-in to a secure

location with a trade-in affidavit. However, all excise taxes and

ad valorem taxes due on such a manufactured home trade-in shall be

required to be paid within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the

permit. A certificate of title for a manufactured home trade-in

shall not be issued prior to the furnishing of proof satisfactory to

Service Oklahoma or a licensed operator that all ad valorem taxes

due have been paid. A receipt evidencing payment of ad valorem

taxes for the current year shall constitute satisfactory proof that

all ad valorem taxes due have been paid.
