Oklahoma § 8-214 - Annual report - Annual license fee

§ 8-214. Annual report - Annual license fee

Every burial association doing business in the State of Oklahoma

under the provisions of Sections 201 et seq. of this title shall,

annually, on or before the last day of June, report under oath of

the president and secretary of said association to the Oklahoma

State Board of Embalmers and Funeral Directors, the total income,

less refunds, received by the association from its member during the

preceding calendar year and shall at the same time pay to the Board

an annual license fee equal to one percent (1%) of the said total

income, less refunds, as a condition precedent to the issuance of

the annual license, or the renewal of said license, to the

association. The Board may, if it deems that the Oklahoma State

Board of Embalmers and Funeral Directors Administration and

Enforcement Fund is or will be insufficient to meet the expenses of

the new license year, increase the annual license fee to an amount

not exceeding four percent (4%) of said total income. Any burial

association failing to make such returns and payments promptly and

correctly shall forfeit and pay to the Board in addition to said

fees, the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00). In the event

any such burial association so fails or neglects to make returns or

payments within sixty (60) days, the Board shall notify the burial

association and its agents that they have no authority to do

business in the state and the Board shall request the Attorney

General to proceed to collect said fees and penalties and interest

thereon, by an action at law.
