2018 Oklahoma Statutes
Title 68. Revenue and Taxation
§68-1354.24. Amnesty for uncollected or unpaid sales or use taxes.
A. If the Oklahoma Tax Commission enters into the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement under Section 1354.18 of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes and subject to the limitations in this section:
1. Amnesty shall be granted for uncollected or unpaid sales or use taxes to a seller who registers to pay or to collect and remit applicable sales or use taxes on sales made to purchasers in this state in accordance with the terms of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement, provided that the seller was not registered in this state in the twelve-month period preceding the effective date of this state's participation in the Agreement; and
2. The amnesty will preclude assessment for uncollected or unpaid sales or use tax together with penalty or interest for sales made during the period the seller was not registered in this state, provided registration occurs within twelve (12) months of the effective date of this state’s participation in the Agreement.
B. The amnesty is not available to a seller with respect to any matter or matters for which the seller received notice of the commencement of an audit and which audit is not yet finally resolved including any related administrative and judicial processes.
C. The amnesty is not available for sales or use taxes already paid or remitted to the state or to taxes collected by the seller.
D. The amnesty is fully effective, absent the seller’s fraud or intentional misrepresentation of a material fact, as long as the seller continues registration and continues payment or collection and remittance of applicable sales or use taxes for a period of at least thirty-six (36) months. The statute of limitations applicable to asserting a tax liability during this thirty-six-month period shall be tolled.
E. The amnesty is applicable only to sales or use taxes due from a seller in its capacity as a seller and not to sales or use taxes due from a seller in its capacity as a buyer.
