AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Oklahoma Youth Entrepreneurs Promotion and Development Act of 2026," aims to encourage young entrepreneurs by providing certain tax and licensing exemptions for businesses primarily owned and operated by individuals under 18 years old. Specifically, it exempts sales of tangible personal property and services made by these youth-owned sole proprietorships from sales tax, provided they receive limited adult assistance, generate less than $1,000 in gross revenue annually, and operate on private property with consent or at registered community events, with the condition that no adult materially benefits from the business. Additionally, income derived from such business activities will be exempt from Oklahoma taxable income, again with similar limitations on adult involvement and revenue. The bill also exempts these young sole proprietors from state or local business licensing requirements for up to 90 days per year, and it will become effective on November 1, 2026.
