Except as otherwise provided in Section 4005 of this title, the owner of every vessel or motor in this state shall possess a certificate of title as proof of ownership of such vessel or motor.  Application for a certificate of title, whether an original or duplicate, may be made to the Oklahoma Tax Commission or any motor license agent.  When application is made with a motor license agent, the application information shall be transmitted either electronically or by mail to the Commission by the motor license agent.  If the application information is transmitted electronically, the motor license agent shall forward the required application along with evidence of ownership, where required, by mail.  Where the transmission of application information cannot be performed electronically, the Commission is authorized to provide postage-paid envelopes to motor license agents for the purpose of mailing the application along with evidence of ownership, where required.  The Commission shall upon receipt of proper application information issue an Oklahoma certificate of title.  Such certificates may be mailed to the applicant.  Upon issuance of a certificate of title, the Commission shall provide the appropriate motor license agent with confirmation of such issuance.
