Bill Summary

An Act relating to ad valorem tax; amending 68 O.S. 2021, Section 2887, as amended by Section 1, Chapter 260, O.S.L. 2023 (68 O.S. Supp. 2025, Section 2887), which relates to exemptions; providing exemption for certain personal property of certain business entity; prescribing procedure for determining total fair cash value for entity; exempting entity from certain filing requirement upon certain determination by assessor; updating statutory language; updating statutory references; and providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Oklahoma law to provide an exemption from ad valorem tax, which is a tax based on the assessed value of property, for certain tangible personal property owned by a business entity. Specifically, if the total fair cash value of all taxable tangible personal property owned by a business entity within the state does not exceed $25,000 in a given tax year, that property will be exempt. This total fair cash value is determined before any depreciation is applied. Furthermore, if a county assessor can determine that a business entity qualifies for this exemption based on available information, the business entity will not be required to file a tangible personal property rendition form, which is a report detailing taxable property. This exemption applies per business entity, regardless of how many locations it operates within the state, and will take effect on January 1, 2027.
