Oregon Revised Statutes
The Oregon Revised Statutes are located at the Oregon Legislative Web site.

Administrative Rules
The Department of Revenue´s administrative rule numbers correspond with the actual statute they interpret. Example: The Department of Revenue has written OAR 150-294.311 and OAR 150-294.311(30) to interpret ORS 294.311.
 
The official copies of all administrative rules can be found at the Oregon State Archives Web site. The official copy of our administrative rules is the printed copy stored at the Secretary of State´s office. Revenue also has copies of these official rules. Discrepancies, if any, between the online and printed version are satisfied in favor of the printed version. In particular, tables, special characters, and other special formatting may not translate properly. You may make and print copies of our administrative rules for personal use only.
