The Oklahoma Franchise form is a crucial document that corporations must complete to report their annual franchise tax obligations to the state. This form, officially known as the Oklahoma Annual Franchise Tax Return (FRX 200), collects essential financial information about a corporation's assets and liabilities within Oklahoma. Understanding the details of this form is vital for compliance and accurate tax reporting.
The Oklahoma Franchise Tax Form, known as Form 200, is essential for corporations operating within the state. It serves multiple purposes, including the calculation of franchise tax based on a corporation's assets and business activities in Oklahoma. Corporations must provide specific information, such as their Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN), account number, and the reporting period for which the tax is being filed. The form requires a balance sheet that details total net assets, current liabilities, and capital employed in Oklahoma. Additionally, corporations must disclose their gross business done both within and outside the state. The form also includes schedules for reporting corporate officers, related companies, and current debts. Timely filing is critical, as the tax is due on July 1 each year, with penalties for late submissions. Corporations that determine their tax liability is $250 or less may file a “no tax due” return, but they still must submit officer information and pay a registered agent fee if applicable. Understanding and completing this form accurately is vital for compliance and to avoid unnecessary penalties.

Oklahoma Annual Franchise Tax Return Information
• Requirement for Filing Return
Every corporation organized under the laws of this state, or qualified to do or doing business in Oklahoma in a corporate or organized
capacity by virtue or creation of organization under the laws of this state or any other state, territory, district, or a foreign country, including
associations, joint stock companies and business trusts as defined by Oklahoma statutes unless exempt by statutes must file an Annual Franchise Tax Return Form 200.
The term “doing business” means and includes every act, power, or privilege exercised or enjoyed in this state as an incident to do or by virtue of powers and privileges acquired by the nature of all organizations falling within the purview of the Franchise Tax Code.
All Foreign (non-Oklahoma) Corporations including non-profits, must pay an Annual Registered Agent Fee of $100.00. Indicate this amount
on Line 13 of the Form 200.
The maximum annual franchise tax is $20,000.00. Maximum filers should complete and file Form 200 including a schedule of current corporate officers and balance sheet.
If a taxpayer computes the franchise tax due and determines that it amounts to $250.00 or less, the taxpayer is exempt from the tax and a
“no tax due” Form 200 is required to be filed. A schedule of corporate officers must still be filed and, for foreign corporations, the $100.00 registered agents fee is still due.
Applications for refunds must include copies of related Oklahoma Income Tax Returns. The use of the correct corporate name and FEIN on your return and all correspondence will facilitate in timely processing and handling.
• Time for Filing and Payment Information
Oklahoma Franchise Tax is due and payable July 1st of each year unless a Franchise Election Form 200-F has been filed. The report and tax will be delinquent if not paid on or before September 15. A ten percent (10%) penalty and one and one-fourth percent (1.25%) interest per month is due on payments made after the due date.
NOTE: Effective November 1, 2017, corporations who remit the maximum amount of $20,000.00 in the preceding tax year, the tax will be due and payable on May 1st of each year and delinquent if not paid on or before June 1st. These corporations are not eligible to file Form 200-F.
If the Charter or other instrument is suspended, a fee of $150.00 is required for reinstatement. (Line 16 of Form 200.)
If you wish to make an election to change your filing frequency, or to file using the Oklahoma Corporate Income Tax Form 512 or 512-S, complete Franchise Election Form 200-F: . You may file this form online or download it at tax.ok.gov. Form 200-F must be filed no later
than July 1.
• Franchise Tax Computation
The basis for computing Oklahoma Franchise Tax is the balance sheet as shown by your books of account at the close of the last preceding
income tax accounting year, or electing to change filing to match the due date of the corporate income tax, the balance sheet for that corporate tax year.
The franchise tax for corporations doing business both within and outside of Oklahoma, is computed on the proportion to which property owned, or property owned and business done, within Oklahoma, bears to total property owned, or total property owned and total business done everywhere.
“Property owned” is the book value of the assets. For the purpose of determining apportionment as between Oklahoma and elsewhere, liabilities are not to be deducted from gross assets.
The term “business done” means and includes the engaging in any activity or the performing of any act or acts in this state that constitutes the doing or transacting of business. Business done in Oklahoma includes sales shipped from Oklahoma to another state in which the corporation is not doing business.
Inter-company Payable and Receivables between parent, subsidiary and/or affiliates, are to be eliminated from the calculations necessary to determine the amount of franchise tax due.
Oklahoma franchise (excise) tax is levied and assessed at the rate of $1.25 per $1,000.00 or fraction thereof on the amount of capital allocated or employed in Oklahoma.
