Door-to-Door Permit Rules in Oklahoma: 4 Cities Checked

So far 4 cities in Oklahoma have been checked. Each one links to its own card, which cites the ordinance and shows the date it was checked.

Broken Arrow

Partly read: the permit answer is sourced, but the fee or the hours could not be read from the city’s own pages.

  • Permit: Yes — a peddler's license, per company, with a city-issued photo ID for each rep.
  • Fee: The code does not state a dollar figure: 'each peddler shall pay a license fee as set forth in the Manual of Fees adopted by the city council for each company' (§ 7-3(e)). The city's Manual of Fees is published only as a flip-book document that this session could not read as text, so the dollar amount is not sourced here.
  • Hours you may knock: The code sets no clock-time restriction. Current § 7-3 has no hours subsection, consistent with the city's own news post explaining that a solicitor with a valid permit 'is legally allowed to work within the community' subject only to 'No Soliciting' signs and a verbal order to leave — no time-of-day limit is mentioned.

Norman

  • Permit: Yes — a Solicitor/Peddler permit.
  • Fee: $100 for a 30-day door-to-door permit plus $50 for each additional seller on that permit; $200 for a 60-day permit plus $100 per additional seller; $20 for a one-day permit. 'Thirty day door-to-door permit is $100. Each additional seller, operating under one thirty day permit shall pay a fee of $50.00. Sixty day door-to-door permit is $200. Each additional seller, operating under one sixty day permit shall pay a fee of $100...One day permit is $20,' per the city's own Solicitor/Peddler license requirements sheet. The code itself only says the fee is 'as provided in the City fee schedule' (NCC 20-2909).
  • Hours you may knock: 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., or sunset if earlier. 'Door-to-door peddlers and solicitors may only operate from the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. or sunset, whichever is earlier' (NCC 20-2902).

Oklahoma City

  • Permit: Yes. A peddler license from the Supervisor of Licenses, per person (39-31).
  • Fee: $30.00 peddler’s permit application fee per applicant, non-refundable, per the General Schedule of Fees (60-39-1; 39-33). Paying by card adds a 2.7 percent service fee. The state criminal history report is bought separately from the OSBI; the city code does not give its price.
  • Hours you may knock: 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. each day in residential zoning districts, unless the resident agreed to an appointment at another time (39-18).
  • Checked: 18 September 2026

Tulsa

  • Permit: No door-to-door solicitor permit was found in the Tulsa code.
  • Fee: None found. The Door to Door Solicitation chapter sets no fee and no license.
  • Hours you may knock: 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. in residential zoning districts, unless the occupant gave a specific invitation or appointment. The rule covers anyone “taking orders for any goods, merchandise or services” (Title 27, Sections 2902 and 2903).
