Is it true that a license can change business entities without affecting CCB license number(s)?

Yes, it can change freely
No, it cannot change
No, it requires a new license
Yes, but with restrictions

The correct answer is: No, it cannot change

The assertion that a license can change business entities without affecting the CCB license number is inaccurate. When a construction contractor changes their business entity, such as from a sole proprietorship to a corporation or vice versa, this typically means that the underlying legal structure of the business is changing. As a result, the CCB license number associated with the original entity would no longer be valid for the new business entity. In Oregon, the Construction Contractors Board (CCB) requires that contractors apply for a new license if they alter their business structure. This is to ensure that all licensing information reflects the current entity’s legal status and responsibilities. Maintaining accurate and updated records is essential in the construction industry, both for regulatory compliance and for maintaining trust with clients and stakeholders. Thus, the option that suggests a business can change entities freely while retaining the original CCB license number does not align with the regulations set forth by the Oregon CCB. Transitioning to a new business entity necessitates obtaining a new license to properly reflect the business's legal identity within the state’s contractor licensing system.
