Oregon’s Secretary of State considers annual renewals to be a compliance document that all businesses must complete. Filing an annual renewal will keep your company in good standing with the state. The primary reason businesses must file an annual report is so that the state is made aware of any structural changes to the business. This includes changes in officer positions, changes in address, and changes in registered agents.
There are certain things that a company cannot change, however. Companies cannot change their company name when filing an Oregon annual report. To do this, they would need to instead file an amendment with the Secretary of State. Businesses also cannot change the jurisdiction on your renewal form. The jurisdiction is the state or country where you formed your company, which means you will never be permitted to change this information.
The deadline to file a renewal is the anniversary of the date of the original filing, otherwise known as the date your company became legal in Oregon. For example, if the state of Oregon certified your company on November 14, 2015, your state annual report would be due on November 15 every year thereafter.

Oregon Annual Report FAQS
What Does It Cost to File the Oregon Annual Report?
Filing fees are $100 for all domestic businesses. Foreign businesses will pay a filing fee of $275, while nonprofits pay $50 regardless of their location. Additionally, charities will pay between $10 and $200. The exact sum owed will depend upon the amount of charity that is distributed over the course of the year.
When Is the Filing Deadline with the State of Oregon?
Reports are due by the anniversary date of the business filing, each year. If your company was formed on April 15, your due date is April 15 of each year. You can, however, file as much as 45 days in advance of this due date.
Does Oregon Assess a Penalty for Filing Late?
No, there are no late penalties from the Oregon Secretary of State.
However, businesses that don’t file will be listed as inactive. And after being late for 45 days, your business will be dissolved and your right to do business in Oregon will be revoked, at which point you would have to pay to be reinstated. (In Oregon, you may only reinstate your business if it has been dissolved for less than five years.)
Dissolution can bring additional costs to your company as you pay to register it with the state once again.
Are There Initial Report Requirements for Oregon Businesses?
No, the State of Oregon has no initial report requirements.
Who Is Allowed to File the Oregon Annual Report?
Anyone who has authority is allowed to file the report with the State of Oregon on behalf of the business.
