Oklahoma cottage food laws
Last updated October 26, 2026. Rules change, so always confirm with the official Oklahoma source.
The law: Homemade Food Freedom Act (October 2026); Local Food Freedom Act effective November 1, 2026
What you can sell
Shelf-stable foods and temperature-controlled foods are allowed subject to different delivery rules.
What you can't sell
Meat, poultry, seafood, alcoholic beverages, unpasteurized milk and cannabis products are excluded.
Do you need a license or permit?
No mandatory establishment license or routine inspection; food-safety training is required for temperature-controlled products. An optional privacy registration number costs $15 annually.
Sales limits
In October 2026, gross annual prepared-food sales must be less than $75,000. HB 3720 raises this to less than $250,000 effective November 1, 2026.
Where you can sell
Shelf-stable foods may be sold online, through stores or agents and shipped by carriers; temperature-controlled foods must be sold and delivered directly by the producer. Packaged interstate products must also comply with federal sales and labeling law.
Label requirements
October labels need producer name, phone and physical address (or optional registration number), product description, ingredients and allergens, plus “This product was produced in a private residence that is exempt from government licensing and inspection.” Use at least 10-point print; internet listings must disclose the information too.
Good to know
The cited enrolled amendment takes effect November 1, not October; it changes the disclaimer from “private residence” to “facility” and expands production locations. Official effective-date confirmation: https://www.okhouse.gov/posts/news-20260507_4.
