Oregon Notice to Pay Rent or Quit Template
What a Oregon notice to pay rent or quit must include under Oregon law, and a fill-in draft that follows those rules.
Use the official form if there is one
What Oregon law requires
Written notice of nonpayment and the landlord's intent to terminate if rent is not paid: week-to-week - at least 72 hours, served no sooner than day 5 of the rental period; other tenancies - at least 10 days served no sooner than day 8, or at least 13 days served no sooner than day 5. Notice must state the amount of rent due and the date and time by which it must be paid. A copy of the Judicial Department's rental-assistance notice (ORS 105.136) must be delivered with any nonpayment termination notice, or the eviction case is dismissed. Service: personal delivery, first-class mail (add 3 days and state the extension), mail-plus-attachment if the written agreement allows, or email only with a signed addendum and also by first-class mail.

Fill-in draft
Replace every [bracketed] item. If your state or city requires specific wording, a specific form, or a translated version, that requirement controls over this draft. Courts dismiss eviction cases over defective notices — if anything is unclear, talk to a lawyer.
