Q: How do I apply for a service permit?
A: Create an account through CAMP: https://camp.olcc.online/. Fill out the application form, upload a valid copy of your valid government-issued ID, driver license, or passport, and pay the fee of $23. The fees are non-refundable.
Q: I don't have a computer and/or internet access. Is there another way to apply?A: All service permit applications must be completed through CAMP. Paper applications are no longer accepted. If you do not have access to a computer, smart phone or tablet, there are other places where public access to computers is available such as a public library, school, or community center. Most
in-person Alcohol Server Education class providers offer support with applications and for students who do not have a computer or internet access.
Q: English is not my primary language. Can I take the test in another language?A: Yes, applicants can choose to view the test in English, Spanish, or Chinese.
OLCC may grant an extension of time to complete the Alcohol Server Education Class in Spanish or Chinese if a class is not available within 45 days of the date you submitted your application. If you think you may need an extension, please contact the Server Education Department at 503-872-5133 or
olcc.ServerEd@olcc.oregon.gov.
Q: What types of files are acceptable to upload my ID?
A: To make uploading these documents easy, we are accepting a variety of file formats. The types of files accepted are: BMP, CSV, DOC, DOCM, DOCX, GIF, JPEG, JPG, ODT, PDF, PNG, PO, RTF, XLSX.
If your document is in another format, try saving a screenshot of the document, taking a picture of the document, or “Save As" a PDF document.
Q: Can I upload documents to CAMP from my phone or tablet?A: Yes. If you have a photo or copy of the document on the mobile device you are using in one of the supported document types, you can select the folder where it is saved to upload the file through the upload screen in CAMP. If you have saved it on a different device, try emailing or texting the document to the device you are using and save it to the device. Another option is to save the document on a cloud-based server like Google Docs so you can access it from the device you are using. If you are still having issues uploading your ID, please the Service Permit Department at 503-872-5200 or
olcc.servicepermits@olcc.oregon.gov.
Q: Can I reapply for my Alcohol Service Permit before it expires?
A: Yes. You can reapply up to six months prior to expiration. Remember your Alcohol Service Permit is good for five years from the effective date. In order to reapply for your service permit, you are also required to take an approved Alcohol Server Education class.
