How to Fill Out a Bill of Sale in Oklahoma
A step-by-step guide to every field on an Oklahoma vehicle bill of sale — with a free filled-in example you can download instantly.
Oklahoma routes vehicle paperwork through a privatized network — licensed tag agents on nearly every main street — and puts a notary requirement where few states do: the assignment on the BACK of a paper Oklahoma title must be notarized, and a vehicle with an electronic title (Oklahoma's default since July 1, 2025, with limited exceptions) is sold on Form 718, which must be notarized too (many tag agents notarize on the spot, which is why the smart sequence is to fill everything out and sign at the agent's counter). Your bill of sale records parties, vehicle, VIN, odometer, true price, date, signatures (Form 701-6 is the title application, not a bill of sale). The price matters doubly here because Oklahoma's excise tax on used private-party sales is $20 on the first $1,500 of value plus 3.25% of the remainder — an unusual hybrid formula — and the sale must be pre-registered within 2 business days, with the buyer titling within two months before penalties start.
