All surplus lines tax payment checks MUST be made payable to the "Oregon Department of Consumer & Business Services".

 

This is effectively immediately.  Tax checks made out to the Insurance Commissioner will no longer be accepted by the State of Oregon.  Please update your system (s) to reflect this information.   

 

The following names are acceptable to the state:

  • Oregon DCBS
  • Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services
  • Oregon Dept. of Consumer & Business Services

"Oregon" Must be spelled out fully.

" Dept" is the only acceptable abbreviation.
