2024 Limited Marijuana Tax Compliance Extension

8/5/2024 12:41:13 PM +00:00

OAR 845-025-1190 (Effective 08/13/2024)

This rule outlines the requirements marijuana retailers must follow to obtain an extension for tax compliance.

Since the OLCC was directed in 2023 to take steps to require proof of tax compliance for marijuana retailers, the agency has encountered situations where licensees have extenuating circumstances that prevent them from timely obtaining certificates of tax compliance. The amendments outline the process and criteria OLCC requires to grant a licensee’s request for a temporary extension.

This action makes the temporary amendments permanent, with some minor changes to refine the rule language. Effective 08/13/2024.

Hemp License Requirement - UPDATE

6/28/2024 12:03:30 AM +00:00

Clarification: Marijuana licensees are exempt from the hemp vendor licensed described in the previous email. No action is required for a marijuana licensee to comply with this new requirement. OLCC licensees must continue to comply with OLCC requirements around the sale, distribution, and receipt of hemp items.

Starting July 1, 2024:  

In Oregon, any hemp retailers or wholesalers who store, transfer, or sell industrial hemp or hemp items for resale to another person must get a hemp vendor license from the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA), as per OAR 603-048-0175.  The vendor license costs $100 per year and is valid from July 1 – June 30. This schedule aligns with ODA’s Food Safety and Weights and Measures licensing cycle, making it easier for customers who need multiple licenses to do business with ODA.

Public Rule Hearing Limited Marijuana Tax Compliance Extension

6/4/2024 11:00:04 AM +00:00

• Public Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

In 2023, the Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC) and Department of Revenue (DOR) were directed by Governor Kotek to take steps to require proof of tax compliance for marijuana retailers as part of the renewal, change of ownership, addition of license holders, and/or new licensure process. Since that time, the OLCC has encountered a subset of licensees that have extenuating circumstances preventing them from obtaining certificates of tax compliance within the timeframes currently allowed in rule. Licensees may be facing deaths in the family, pending legal actions, or other technical/paperwork delays beyond their control, but are otherwise able to demonstrate an acceptable level of tax compliance.

In response to these situations, the OLCC passed a temporary rule to grant relief only in specific situations where the licensee is in compliance with marijuana taxes and diligently trying to obtain a certificate of compliance while working through other tax issues. These amendments temporarily provided the OLCC flexibility to allow additional time that will prevent the unnecessary closing of an otherwise compliant businesses. A licensee applying for an extension would need to meet specific requirements and provide proof that they are working to obtain their certificate of compliance. The OLCC is not anticipating granting such extensions frequently and intends to continue requiring strict compliance in most cases, but needs the flexibility to allow for case-by-case circumstances, given that the process creates unique situations for individual licensees. This rulemaking makes the temporary rules permanent, with some minor changes.
