Lost Your Portland Business License? Don't Panic!
So, you’ve lost your Portland business license. It’s like losing your keys, but instead of freaking out about missing your favorite Netflix show, you're worried about the potential wrath of the city. We've all been there, or at least imagined it. Don't stress! Let's embark on this bureaucratic adventure together.

| How Do I Find My Portland Business License |
Where Did It Go, Waldo?
The first step in finding your lost license is a classic game of hide-and-seek. Check the obvious places: your desk, filing cabinet, and that mysterious black hole known as the “junk drawer.” If you’re feeling adventurous, you could try looking under the couch cushions or in the fridge (you never know, it might be craving some company).
If you've exhausted your Sherlock Holmes impersonation and still no license, it's time to move on to the digital realm.
Tip: Keep the flow, don’t jump randomly.
The Digital Hunt
In this age of technology, it's highly likely that a digital copy of your business license exists. Check your email for any confirmations or correspondence from the city. You might also have saved a PDF copy on your computer or cloud storage. If you’re feeling extra organized, you might even have a dedicated folder for important documents. (We know, we're shocked too.)
Calling the Cavalry
If the digital hunt yields no results, it's time to call in the reinforcements. Contact the Portland Revenue Division. Yes, we know, government offices and excitement aren't synonymous, but they’re the ones who issued the license, so they’re your best bet. Be prepared to provide some basic information about your business, like your business name and address.
Tip: Take notes for easier recall later.
Preventative Measures: Don’t Lose It Again!
Now that you’ve found your license (or at least know how to get a replacement), let’s make sure this doesn’t happen again. Create a digital backup and store it securely. Consider using a cloud storage service or external hard drive. And for the physical copy, find a designated spot for it, like a lockable filing cabinet or a fireproof safe. Or, you know, just tape it to your forehead. Whatever works for you.
