Official statutory text

A. Every person who qualifies pursuant to subsection B of this

vendor may apply to the Tax Commission for a direct payment permit.

The permit shall be valid for three (3) years. Each such person

payment permit, setting forth such information as the Tax Commission

may require, including but not limited to:

1. An agreement that is signed by the owner of the business or

representative of the business entity and as a natural person, and,

in the case of a corporation, as a legally constituted officer

thereof, that provides that the applicant agrees to:

a. accrue and remit all taxes imposed by Section 1350 et

seq. of this title or Section 1401 et seq. of this

title on the sale or use of all taxable personal

property or services sold to or leased or rented by

the applicant. Provided, no tax shall be due from the

holder of a direct payment permit on tangible personal

property intended solely for use in other states, but

other states or which is temporarily retained in

Oklahoma for the purpose of fabrication, repair,

testing, alteration, maintenance, or other service,

b. pay such taxes as required by Section 1365 of this

title. Provided, in lieu of monthly reports, persons

qualifying pursuant to paragraph 2 of subsection B of

this section owing an average per month of Five

Hundred Dollars ($500.00) or less may file quarterly

reports and remit taxes due thereunder to the Tax

Commission on or before the twentieth day of the month

following the calendar quarter. If not paid on or

before the twentieth day of such month, the tax shall

be delinquent,

title on the payment of all taxes remitted directly to

the Tax Commission; and

applicant proposes to differentiate between taxable and exempt

transactions.

Upon verification that the applicant is eligible to receive a

direct payment permit, the Tax Commission shall issue a direct

payment permit for the place of business set forth in the

application for the permit. The Tax Commission shall be the sole

judge of the applicant's qualifications and may refuse to issue a

direct payment permit to an applicant. An applicant who has been

denied the issuance of a permit may submit an amended application or

may submit a new application after a reasonable period of time after

the denial of the original application.

permit as provided in subsection A of this section:
