What to know about taxes in Oregon
Oregon taxes personal income, and state returns are filed with the Oregon Department of Revenue. Planning has to account for both federal and Oregon rules. Oregon has no statewide sales tax but a relatively high personal income tax, and the Portland metro area has additional local income taxes.
Whether you are filing a personal return, running a growing company or answering a letter from the IRS or the state, we pair you with an advisor who works through Oregon returns every season.

Learn moreOregon tax FAQs
10 answers about taxes in Oregon.
Do you prepare Oregon state tax returns?
Yes. We prepare resident, part-year and nonresident Oregon returns and file them with the Oregon Department of Revenue, together with your federal return.
When are Oregon individual returns due?
Many states follow the federal April 15 deadline, but some set their own dates. We track the Oregon Department of Revenue deadlines for you and file extensions when they are needed.
Does Oregon have a sales tax?
Oregon has no general statewide sales tax. Oregon businesses that sell into other states may still need to collect those states' sales tax once they pass economic nexus thresholds, and we review that for you.
What payroll registrations does a Oregon employer need?
Employers generally register with Oregon for unemployment insurance and state income tax withholding, plus any other state payroll programs that apply. We handle the registrations and the ongoing filings.
Do I need to make Oregon estimated tax payments?
If you have income without enough withholding, such as self-employment or investment income, Oregon generally expects estimated payments during the year, with its own thresholds and due dates. We calculate federal and state payments together.
How are LLCs and corporations taxed in Oregon?
Oregon applies its own rules to LLCs, S corporations and C corporations, and in some cases charges franchise, gross receipts or minimum taxes regardless of profit. We review how your entity is treated in Oregon before you form it or make an election.
I moved into or out of Oregon. What do I file?
Usually a part-year return for each state you lived in during the year, with credits so the same income is not taxed twice. Our multi-state filing service handles this.
Can you represent me with the Oregon Department of Revenue?
Yes. In addition to IRS matters, we respond to notices and audits from the Oregon Department of Revenue when you authorize us to.
Can a Oregon business work with BATS remotely?
Yes. We work with Oregon businesses through video meetings, secure document upload and cloud accounting software, so there is no need to visit an office.
