Bill > SB47

This bill modifies the special license fee for coin-operated music and amusement devices in Oklahoma by reducing the annual fee for each coin-operated music or amusement device from $75.00 to $50.00, while making the language gender-neutral by replacing "his" with "his or her" throughout the text. The bill clarifies the requirements for various types of coin-operated devices, including vending machines of different price points and bulk vending devices, and maintains the provision for special decals for devices used temporarily at seasonal events like fairs and carnivals. The fee structure remains comprehensive, covering different types of coin-operated devices and specifying that the annual fee is in lieu of sales tax. The bill allows the Oklahoma Tax Commission to issue special decals for devices used for less than a full year, with fees calculated at one-tenth of the annual rate for each calendar month of use. The legislation will become effective on January 1, 2026, providing ample time for businesses to prepare for the changes in licensing fees.
