Oregon telemarketing calling hours

Calling hours in Oregon

Oregon allows telephone solicitations every day 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, in the recipient's local time (ORS 646.563(1)(b) (as amended by 2025 c.580)). Applies to telephone solicitations by call or text; business-to-business calls are excluded. Also limits calls to 3 per person per 24 hours.

The federal TCPA window of 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM (47 CFR 64.1200(c)(1)) still applies on top of the state rule. Where the two differ, the stricter one wins.

Time zones and area codes in Oregon

Oregon spans 2 time zones: Mountain and Pacific. Most area codes are on Pacific time. Area codes 458 and 541 cover more than one zone. When the checker cannot tell which zone the person is in, it shows each one and only says you can call when the call is allowed in all of them.

Oregon has 4 area codes: 458, 503, 541 and 971. Enter one in the checker above to see the hours for that number.

What else applies

Calling hours are one rule among several. Consent for autodialed and AI or prerecorded voice calls, the National Do Not Call Registry and debt collection rules apply to Oregon calls separately. Mobile numbers can move with their owner, so the area code is a best guess at location. This is not legal advice; check with counsel before you change a calling program.
