Step One: Gather Information

1. Renew at the correct time:
   1. April 1 - June 30: Renewal Period if business address is South of Burnside St
   2. October 1 - December 31: Renewal Period if business address is North of Burnside St
2. Confirm your business is in City of Portland:
   1. Business address must be in the City of Portland boundaries.
   2. This is a renewal for an annual liquor license, not a server permit.
3. Collect any business information information that has changed in the last year.

Step Two. Submit Application Online

1. Create an account or log in to the Liquor Online Application Website.
2. If this is your first log in - you must create an account, then email liquor@portlandoregon.gov with your user name, tradename and business address. Staff must connect your user name to your existing business before you will be able to see your account in the portal.
3. Under Home, Choose "My Records", then click on the blue Renewal link on the appropriate listed license.
4. Update any contact or business information that has changed in the last year.

5. Pay your processing fee - $35 per license renewed. You may add multiple license renewals to your "cart".

    

Please note that if you mail in a renewal application with a check, the check will be cashed as an ACH and the check shredded. We strongly discourage mailed payments. 

If you need an accommodation because of a disability or because you do not have access to online systems, please send an email to liquor@portlandoregon.gov requesting support.
