Oklahoma taxes the production of oil, gas, and other minerals as a gross production tax under Title 68. A reclaimer recovers marketable oil from tank bottoms, basic sediment, spills, or saltwater and sells it — and when it is responsible for remitting the tax, the Oklahoma Tax Commission can require a surety bond as a condition of its reporting number.
The bond is filed on form BT-158 and guarantees that you pay all gross production tax, penalties, and interest due the State of Oklahoma while it is in force. The Commission generally sets the amount at about three months’ estimated tax liability, so it scales with what you recover and market.
It is a guarantee to the state, not insurance for you — if the surety pays unremitted tax, you repay the surety. Enter the amount on your Commission notice and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Tax Commission set — the executed BT-158 is generated instantly, ready to file.
