Section 1309.311. Perfection of security interests in property subject to certain statutes, regulations, and treaties - UCC 9-311

(A) Except as otherwise provided in division (D) of this section, the filing of a financing statement is not necessary or effective to perfect a security interest in property subject to:

(1) A statute, regulation, or treaty of the United States whose requirements for a security interest's obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the property preempt division (A) of section 1309.310 of the Revised Code;

(2) Chapters 1547., 1548., 4505., 4519., and 5309. of the Revised Code;

(3) A statute of another jurisdiction that provides for a security interest to be indicated on a certificate of title as a condition or result of the security interest's obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the property.

(B) Compliance with the requirements of a statute, regulation, or treaty described in division (A) of this section for obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor is equivalent to the filing of a financing statement under this chapter. Except as otherwise provided in division (D) of this section, section 1309.313, and divisions (D) and (E) of section 1309.316 of the Revised Code for goods covered by a certificate of title, a security interest in property subject to a statute, regulation, or treaty described in division (A) of this section may be perfected only by compliance with those requirements, and a security interest so perfected remains perfected notwithstanding a change in the use or transfer of possession of the collateral.

(C) Except as otherwise provided in division (D) of this section and divisions (D) and (E) of section 1309.316 of the Revised Code, duration and renewal of perfection of a security interest perfected by compliance with the requirements prescribed by a statute, regulation, or treaty described in division (A) of this section are governed by the statute, regulation, or treaty. In other respects, the security interest is subject to this chapter.

(D) During any period in which collateral subject to a statute specified in division (A)(2) of this section is inventory held for sale or lease by a person or leased by that person as lessor and that person is in the business of selling goods of that kind, this section does not apply to a security interest in that collateral created by that person.
