Real Estate License from Kansas to Oklahoma: Does It Transfer? (2026)

What's different between Kansas and Oklahoma

Computed from both states' verified data rows, in both directions, and from the route every other origin gets into Oklahoma. Exam notes are our summary of each board's published rules, with sources below.

Route, each way

Kansas to Oklahoma (this page): Licensure by endorsement.

Oklahoma to Kansas (the reverse move): Licensure by endorsement.

The route is the same in both directions.

Does coming from Kansas matter?

Kansas gets Oklahoma's most common result: 42 of 50 origins (the other 49 states and DC) get the same one, so for most movers the origin does not change the answer.

The others get: reciprocity agreement (8).

Reciprocity agreements

Oklahoma's reciprocity agreement list names 8 states (Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota), not including Kansas.

Kansas's row names no reciprocity agreement states.

Application fee

Oklahoma lists $220 for an out-of-state applicant and Kansas lists $125 for the reverse move; neither may be the full cost.

Pre-license education

Oklahoma's first-time-applicant standard is 90 hours of pre-license education; Kansas's is 60.

Oklahoma's is 30 education hours higher than Kansas's.

Exam rules on record

Oklahoma and Kansas carry different exam notes (our summaries, below); any state law or jurisprudence exam is listed with each state's requirements.

• Oklahoma (this move): Oklahoma State-only examination (national portion waived) for applicants with 2+ years' experience in the last 3 years under an out-of-state license, OR any amount of experience in the last 5 years from Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Nebraska, North Dakota or South Dakota; all other out-of-state applicants take the full national + Oklahoma examination (Pearson VUE).
• Kansas (the reverse move): Kansas has NO state-specific reciprocity agreements, but any applicant already actively licensed in another state is exempt from the National exam portion and takes ONLY the Kansas State portion of the salesperson exam (30 questions) through Pearson VUE. Such applicants complete a reduced 30-hour Kansas pre-license course instead of the full 60 hours.
