SECTION 39d.
ORS 803.350 is amended to read:
803.350. This section establishes the requirements for qualification for registration. The De-
partment of Transportation shall not issue registration to a vehicle if the requirements under this
section are not met. The department, in the absence of just cause for refusing to register a vehicle
upon application, shall assign a distinctive number or other distinctive means of identification and
shall issue registration for a vehicle if all of the following requirements are met:
(1) The applicant applies for and is granted title in the applicant’s name at the same time the
person makes application for registration, or presents satisfactory evidence that title covering the
vehicle has been previously issued to the applicant.
(2) The applicant completes an application described under ORS 803.370. If the vehicle is a re-
constructed or assembled vehicle or a replica, the person must indicate that fact in the application
or be subject to ORS 803.225.
(3) The applicant pays the department the registration fee established under ORS 803.420 and
any applicable fees for issuance of registration plates.
(4) For motor vehicles, proof of compliance with pollution control equipment requirements is
provided to the department. Proof required to comply with this subsection is described under ORS
815.310. This subsection does not apply if the vehicle is exempt from the requirements for proof of
compliance under ORS 815.300.
(5) The applicant is domiciled in this state, as described in ORS 803.355, if required by ORS
803.360 to be domiciled in the state in order to register a vehicle. If the department has reason to
believe that the applicant is not domiciled in this state and is required to be in order to register a
vehicle, the department may require the person to submit proof of domicile. The department shall
determine by rule what constitutes proof of domicile.
