No. TOD deeds work by being recorded against a specific parcel of real estate, so the deed must be a Oklahoma TOD deed recorded with the Oklahoma county where the property sits. A TOD deed signed in another state cannot transfer Oklahoma real property, regardless of how it was executed. If you own real estate in more than one state, each parcel needs its own state-appropriate TOD deed. See the document portability tool for the full breakdown.
