OTC Agency Information
Mission Statement
Our Mission is to serve the people of Oklahoma by promoting tax compliance through quality service and fair administration.
Summary
Since 1931, the Oklahoma Tax Commission has held the responsibility of the collection and administration of taxes, licenses and fees that impact every Oklahoman. The collected revenues fuel such state projects as education, transportation, recreation, social welfare and a myriad of other services.
Under the direction of the state legislature, the Tax Commission manages not only the collection of taxes and fees, but also the distribution and apportionment of revenues to various state funds. Additionally, the Tax Commission distributes certain ear-marked funds to counties, school districts and municipalities throughout the state. Some of these ear-marked funds include collections from sales and use taxes as well as county lodging taxes.
The employees of the Oklahoma Tax Commission strive daily to meet the needs of the taxpayers by providing efficient customer service in a friendly manner.
Agency Structure
Throughout the decades, the Tax Commission has prioritized a flexible organization that encourages keeping pace with changes in technology, government structure and the ever-changing lifestyles of our taxpayers.
Each of the three members of the Commission is appointed, to a six-year term, by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate. Currently, the Commission is comprised of Chairman Charles Prater, Vice Chairman Clark Jolley and Secretary-Member Steve Burrage. The commissioners are responsible for the supervision of the administration and enforcement of state tax laws and the collection of a majority of all state-levied taxes and fees.
Under the direction of the commissioners, Executive Director, Jay Doyle, oversees the general practices of the agency. He is assisted by a team of professionals who staff the administrative offices of the agency, as well as twelve division directors whose staffs encompass the three major arms of the agency’s organizational chart: Customer Service, Revenue Administration and Support Services.
