2026–2027 Confidential Personal Property Returns deadline March 16

The deadline to file a Confidential Personal Property Return (CPPR) for businesses is March 16, 2026.

Every individual, partnership, firm, or corporation that owns tangible personal property must file a CPPR by March 15 each year. For 2026, the deadline is March 16 because March 15 falls on a Sunday.

Oregon law requires all business owners-even those operating from home-to file a return with their county assessor listing all business-related personal property. They must include purchase and lease dates, as well as amounts.

Personal property may include office furniture, personal computers, portable machinery, off-road vehicles, and display cases used for business purposes. It also includes leased equipment such as copiers and power washers.

A fully executed CPPR must list all taxable personal property that you own, possess, or control as of 1:00 a.m. on January 1, 2026 (ORS 308.250).

To assist business owners, personal property tax experts are available on a drop-in basis Monday through Thursday, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., at the Assessment and Taxation Office, 125 E. 8th Avenue, Eugene. This free service is offered as an effort to improve customer service.
