Full On-Premises Sales License — Oregon (OLCC)
Oregon restaurants serving liquor need an OLCC Full On-Premises license (with a local government endorsement) and must offer at least five different meals.
What it is. The OLCC Full On-Premises Sales license authorizing the sale of distilled spirits, malt beverages, wine, and cider for on-premises consumption. Food service is required: the business must make at least five different meals available at all times and in all areas where alcohol is served.
Who issues it. Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC) (State layer), after a local government endorsement/recommendation.
When you need it. Before serving alcohol. A local government recommendation is required first: the local government completes its section (in Portland, typically via the appropriate city office), which you then upload to your online CAMP application.
How to apply. Obtain the local government recommendation, then apply online through OLCC's CAMP (Cannabis and Alcohol Management Program). Alcohol servers also need OLCC service permits.
Fees. Per the OLCC fee schedule — see source (⟢ VERIFY).
What SpoonSeal tracks. The document(s) you upload for this requirement, with automatic renewal/expiration tracking (Current, Due Soon, Expired). Where the city publishes health-inspection results (e.g., NYC and Chicago), SpoonSeal syncs them automatically; elsewhere they can be added manually.
