Section 635-001-0050 - License Refunds

Consistent with the authority to make refunds prescribed in ORS 293.445(2), the Department will issue a refund of moneys received in excess of the amount legally due:

(1) If the Department determines a person has made an overpayment of more than $5; or

(2) Upon written request from a person who made an overpayment, or the person's legal representative, if the request is submitted to the Department within three years of the date that the Department received the overpayment.

(3) License and tag refunds will be granted upon request only to a person furnishing satisfactory evidence to the Department that:

(a) More licenses or tags than necessary have been acquired;

(b) A higher fee than set by statute was paid for;

(c) A license agency made an error; or

(d) Death of a tag holder occurs before the opening of the season for which the tag was issued; only the tag fee shall be refunded. For the purpose of this rule the person in possession of the deceased's tag shall be presumed to be entitled to the refund.

(4) Where seasons have closed that affect a large number of license buyers and where other similar opportunities are not available, the Director may authorize a license refund for monies received by the state, which, in equity and good conscience, it is not entitled to.
