I remember it like it was yesterday. One of the hottest days of the summer. Reluctantly, I took a chance and headed on in to the DEQ to get my car registered. On a Tuesday, mind you. I just knew it was going to be packed, but I went on ahead and made the commute. Lo and be hold, short lines in every terminal. The attendants were quick and friendly. I was in and outta there like a... Well nevermind. To say the least, It was a painless experience. Anyway, see ya in 2 years!

Great experience every time I went there over the years. They get the DEQ test and renew your registration at the same time which is very convenient. Be sure to bring the renewal registration notice you received in the mail and have your auto insurance card or a copy of it handy. Cheers

It was fine. One guy was nice and the other was sarcastic and gave me a hard time because I missed seeing a stop sign while I was looking for my mask, even though I apologized profusely and it was an honest mistake. I think it can be easy for them to forget that even though they work there everyday and know the ins and outs, the rest of us go every few years and the process isn't exactly intuitive.

Oregon car tag stickers must be changed every two years. Your car must pass DEQ inspection to renew your registration and get new stickers. Pay for your new stickers here with your credit cards. Use DMV website to learn more.

What do i need to bring with me

Aaron Adrian | Aug 17, 2018
Cheyne Morton-Carnahan | Aug 16, 2020

If you are coming from out of state, just the vehicle and the title for reference (if you have it). If you have Oregon renewal paperwork from DMV, bring that, the vehicle, and proof of insurance. Save time by filling out #1 & #2 on the back of the form. $21 for DEQ + your DMV renewal fee. Cash or Card only, no checks.

Do they provide VIN inspections?

Nan Duffly | May 18, 2022
Clayton Lawrence | May 18, 2022

The Oregon DMV allows DEQ to perform a vehicle identification number inspection on some vehicles only if an emissions test is required at the same time. DEQ will conduct a VIN inspection only in certain circumstances.

The fee for testing is $25. This is added to whatever fees are printed on your registration renewal letter. https://www.oregon.gov/odot/dmv/pages/fees/vehicle.aspx Also, new Multnomah County fees: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/ORDOT/bulletins/2a92048#:~:text=For%20registrations%20expiring%20in%20January,%2478%20each%20two-year%20renewal.

Randy is wrong. In Portland, all vehicles between 1975 and 2017 need DEQ. I literally just pulled that info from the oregon govt website.

First obtain temp plate on line

Do we need to take appointment or its first come first serve base?

Himanshu Parmar | Aug 16, 2020
B.D. Bell | Aug 16, 2020

DEQ does not take appointments. Just make sure you have your paperwork with you, your new registration forms, Etc, and make sure you have proof of insurance, and have your information entered on your renewal forms. Other than that, just show up. For most people it will be $181 for your tags and the test combined. It is $160 for tags normally, and $21 for the DEQ test itself. They will take cash credit or debit, They will not take personal checks that I'm aware of. Good luck!

Can you pass deq with a service engine light on

Patty Attaway | Aug 16, 2020
Sarge Enko | Aug 16, 2020

Most of the time, no. But it depends on the stored code that caused the service light to be on. Most of the codes are emission related which would indicate a problem which would cause the vehicle to fail testing at DEQ.

What all do they check

Luella Anderson | Oct 20, 2021

They plug in to your computer and check emissions data. If you have an older car without the computer they measure emissions from your exhaust pipe.

45 minute wait at lanes 1&2. Yet, some cars are directed to lanes 3&4 where there is no wait and they drive right in. What's up with the preferential treatment?

Judy kelley | Aug 17, 2018
Judy kelley | Aug 17, 2018

I asked when it was finally my turn. The answer didn't make sense, but here it is... 1. Not all the lanes are equipped to do all cars. Yet, I watched all makes, models and years go to the short line. No apparent pattern. 2. I had my puppy in the car on the the way home from the vet. No dogs allowed in the short line. Yet only a handful of drivers in the long line had dogs. So, that didn't make sense. Bottom line advice... Don't take your dog. You will definitely go to the long line. Too bad they don't inform us. As in a sign that reads... "Be prepared to wait longer if your dog is present" or "For expedited service, take your dog home".

Renewal penalties and fees

William Gibson | Aug 17, 2018

Just go to thier website. Who is going to knowbthat stuff?!

How much is the penalty fees& tags?

Paul Nelson | Aug 17, 2018
Carl Foleen | Aug 17, 2018

DEQ fee is $21.00. License fee depends on type of plates on the vehicle and "penalty" would imply some sort of infraction. Usually the "penalty" (most often) is the cost of repairs to bring the vehicle into compliance with current emission requirements. Unless you receive a citation from a police officer. Different styles of plates have different costs in Oregon, so it depends on what plates you have - from exempt, to custom, plain vanilla, or commercial types.
