Oregon Just Made Using a Fake CCB Number a Felony

May 30, 2026

Oregon raised the stakes dramatically for CCB number fraud in 2026.

The law takes effect January 1, 2027, giving contractors, homeowners, and subcontractors in Oregon a new level of legal protection against fraudulent operators — and a serious warning to anyone misrepresenting their license on contracts, estimates, or advertising.
