Learn morePermitting across Oregon
Commercial permitting in Oregon depends on where your project sits. Inside a city, it runs through the local city building department, like the City of Beaverton Building Division or the City of Portland. In unincorporated areas it runs through the county, like Washington County Building Services. We figure out which office pulls your permit, handle the plan review and inspections, and build your schedule around the review timeline. Here is who issues your commercial permit across the metro:
| City or area | Who issues the commercial permit |
|---|---|
| Portland | Portland Permitting and Development |
| Beaverton | City of Beaverton Building Division |
| Hillsboro | City of Hillsboro |
| Tigard | City of Tigard |
| Unincorporated Washington County | Washington County Building Services |
Jurisdiction lines are not always obvious, so we confirm the exact office for your parcel before we start. Verified July 2026.
