Worth knowing
- LLC formation is $100 and the LLC files a $25 Annual Certificate every year on its formation anniversary.
- Oklahoma's corporate franchise tax was eliminated beginning tax year 2024, so domestic corporations have no annual state filing fee.
- Corporation formation fee is 0.1% of authorized capital with a $50 minimum.
- Name reservations are cheap ($10) but last only 60 days.
Registered agent
Oklahoma requires a registered agent. Must maintain a registered agent with an Oklahoma street address. You can serve as your own agent if you have a qualifying address; paid services usually charge a yearly fee.
