Oklahoma
Use Tax Charts
Use tax is a tax paid on goods purchased outside the state of Oklahoma where
the tax was not charged in another state. The most common example is when
something is purchased from an out-of-state mail order company. If the mail
order company does not collect the Oklahoma tax then the Oklahoma resident
is responsible for remitting the tax. The tax rates and codes are available
on the internet.
