Oklahoma City requires commercial solicitor permits under §32-1. Background check and photo ID badge required. Hours 9 AM to 9 PM (sunset whichever earlier).
Oklahoma City Municipal Code §32-1 requires commercial door-to-door solicitors, peddlers, and canvassers to obtain a Solicitor's Permit from the City Clerk. Application requires: valid government ID, disclosure of criminal history, background check through OKCPD ($25 fee), proof of business registration, description of goods/services, and list of all solicitors. Permits are valid 30 to 90 days depending on type and cost $50 to $200. Each solicitor carries a photo ID badge visible while canvassing. Solicitation hours restricted to 9 AM to 9 PM or sunset, whichever is earlier. Religious, political, and charitable canvassing are exempt under First Amendment protections (Village of Schaumburg v. Citizens for a Better Environment, 444 U.S. 620). Edmond Code §22-11, Midwest City, and Del City have similar permit systems. Unincorporated Oklahoma County has no solicitor permit system — Sheriff enforces general trespass law (21 O.S. §1835).
Soliciting without permit: $100 to $500 (OKC §32-9). Violating hours: $100 to $250. Badge not displayed: $50 to $200. Repeat: permit revocation + misdemeanor charge.
