  • Sales tax line: 0.00% state rate. Most services rendered in Oregon are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. No state or local sales tax. CAT (corporate activity tax) on businesses >$1M revenue.
  • Late-fee cap: Oregon statute Or. Rev. Stat. §82.010 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
