Senate Bill No. 1082 amends the Commercial Pet Breeders and Animal Shelter Licensing Act by extending the time for license renewal from sixty (60) days to ninety (90) days before the expiration of the license. The Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry is required to send written notice of the impending license expiration to the animal shelter operator or commercial pet breeder at their last-known address. This change aims to provide more time for license holders to renew their licenses without interruption in their operations.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Department establish an online platform for license renewal and payment by January 1, 2026. This online system is intended to streamline the renewal process for animal shelter operators and commercial pet breeders, making it more accessible and efficient. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
