Official Oregon Landlord & Court Forms
Oregon Judicial Department forms and instructions, the statewide rent-stabilization source and federal disclosure materials.
Reviewed September 2026 • Statewide resource
Before you use any document on this page: we recommend having your attorney review it first. Laws and required forms change, city ordinances add requirements on top of state law, and a notice that is defective in form or timing can cost far more than a legal review. This page is general information for property owners, not legal advice.
Oregon’s court forms and its rental rules live in different official places. This resource separates the court’s filing documents from statewide policy guidance, then points to Portland’s own materials where the local layer may matter.
Every outbound link goes to the issuing court or agency, allowing the source to change its documents without leaving a stale copy on this site.
Begin with Oregon Judicial Department forms
The Oregon Judicial Department is the source for statewide landlord-tenant forms and its landlord instructions explain the court process. Use those current materials when a matter belongs in court, rather than relying on a saved packet or a form from an unrelated jurisdiction.
Then check the rule that applies to the home
Rent-stabilization information is maintained by the Oregon Department of Administrative Services. City rules may create a separate obligation, so Portland owners should also review the City resource linked below before taking action.
