As a result of the legislation in HB2459, codified at 74 O.S. § 325.20 (which went into effect on November 1, 2025), it requires all mobile food preparation vehicles utilizing, handling, or transporting liquefied petroleum gas (propane) or any liquefied petroleum gas system, equipment, container, apparatus, or appliance to obtain and maintain a permit from, and be inspected annually by the Oklahoma Liquefied Petroleum Gas Administration.

Beginning November 1, 2026, food trucks that have not successfully completed the required LP Gas Administration physical inspection and obtained an Operational LP Gas Permit will not be authorized by the LP Gas Administration to operate their propane systems until all applicable inspection and permitting requirements have been satisfied.

The extension provided through October 31, 2026, was intended to allow operators an additional year to complete the required inspection and permitting process. We appreciate the food truck operators who have attended our inspection events and taken proactive steps toward meeting the requirements set for in HB 2459. We encourage all remaining operators who have not yet achieved compliance to complete the required process and attend an upcoming inspection event to obtain the necessary physical inspection and Operational LP Gas Permit.

These requirements are separate from the permitting and approval processes administered by other state agencies and are necessary to ensure the safe operation of propane systems in food trucks throughout Oklahoma.

Steps to compliance

1.  Food Truck Permit Application with Attestation: Food Truck Operators utilizing, handling, or transporting liquefied petroleum gas (propane) or any liquefied petroleum gas system, equipment, container, apparatus, or appliance must complete and submit a registration permit application that includes attestations (the “Food Truck Permit Application and Attestation”) confirming that the LP-Gas systems, equipment, containers, apparatuses, or appliances on their food truck meet all applicable requirements under NFPA 58, including Chapter 16 (Mobile Food Preparation Vehicles).

The form is linked here: Food Truck Permit Application and Attestation. There is a $10 filing fee required. The link to make payment online can be found here: Online Payment

You MUST complete and submit the Food Truck Permit Application with Attestation and submit $10.00 payment, prior to receiving physical inspection.

Please allow 14 business days from the date of passing your physical inspection for processing of your operating permit. Permits will be processed in the order received and mailed to the “Business Mailing Address” provided on your application form.

2.  Leak Check & Pressure Test: Prior to attending a Physical Inspection Event, you must obtain a documented Leak Check & Pressure Test on an approved Form 4, completed by a plumber licensed by the LP Gas Administration.

If you are unable to obtain the required Form 4 before the inspection event, a licensed plumber will be available on-site to perform the necessary tests. However, due to the anticipated number of food trucks requiring repairs, leak checks, and pressure tests, wait times may range from 1 to 4 hours.

3.  Training Requirement: Please visit the link found here: Mobile Food Facilities Safety and Training and save the Certificate provided at the end of the training video and test.

4.  Physical Inspection Requirement: Each food truck must successfully complete and PASS an annual physical inspection by November 1, 2026, and by November 1 of each subsequent year. If a food truck fails an inspection, all required repairs must be completed, and the food truck must return to an LP Gas Administration Inspection Event for reinspection until it successfully passes.

Please note: Individual inspections are not offered. All physical inspections are conducted exclusively at the scheduled Inspection Events listed at the bottom of this page. The LP Gas Administration has a limited number of inspection officers responsible for regulating propane throughout the entire State of Oklahoma. Due to our statewide responsibilities and limited staffing, it is not feasible to conduct inspections at individual food truck locations. Operators must attend one of the scheduled Inspection Events to fulfill this requirement.

No extensions will be granted for the physical inspection requirement beyond October 31, 2026. If your food truck has not passed a physical inspection by this deadline, your Food Truck Permit and Attestation (White Permit Card) will not be renewed. You will not be authorized by the LP Gas Administration to use the propane system on your food truck until it successfully passes a physical inspection.

New Food Truck/Trailer Operators: (If you purchased a Food Truck or Trailer after September 1, 2026).

• Complete Steps 1 - 3 listed above.
• Include a copy of your the original Bill of Sale signed by all parties. The purchase price and any confidential information can be redacted (marked out). The Bill of Sale needs to identify: (1) Seller (2) Buyer (3) Date of Purchase (4) Food truck or trailer identification information (VIN, serial number, or other applicable identifying information).

Upon receipt of the required documentation, the LP Gas Administration will issue a Temporary Operating Permit valid for 60 days. This temporary permit will allow sufficient time for the new operator to attend the next scheduled LP Gas Administration inspection event and complete the required physical inspection. We can not guarantee that a local City or Event Operater will accept the Temporary Operating Permit in leiu of the Inspection Decal.

We have been committed to providing numerous dates and locations to meet inspection needs. Check our website for current inspection dates and locations. Our website will be updated periodically to reflect changes to inspections dates and times.
