We consider the quantum field theoretical formulation of boson field mixing and obtain the exact oscillation formula. This formula does not depend on arbitrary mass parameters. We show that the space for the mixed field states is unitarily inequivalent to the state space where the unmixed field operators are defined. We also study the structure of the currents and charges for the mixed fields.
