Restaurant Meals and Service Charges

Lodging can have separate state and local taxes, exemptions and fixed fees. This guide does not publish a single combined hotel rate. Use the property address and stay dates to check the relevant tax authority, and keep the hotel-issued folio. Check official lodging guidance.
Information to Keep with a Receipt
For useful records, preserve these details where available. This checklist is not a statement of mandatory receipt fields for every Oregon transaction.
- Merchant name, location and transaction date
- Item descriptions, quantities and prices
- Subtotal, discounts, tax and total charged
- Payment confirmation and any relevant business purpose
- For a hotel stay, the original itemized folio
Checking Local Tax in Oregon
For purchases in Portland, Salem, Beaverton, Eugene, Bend or elsewhere in Oregon, a city name alone does not establish the rate. Check the transaction address and date with the tax authority. Then enter only additional local tax not already included in the base rate.

Does a generated receipt prove an expense or qualify for reimbursement?
ReceiptEdit formats the information you enter. A generated document does not independently prove that a transaction occurred or guarantee acceptance by an employer, insurer, tax authority or FSA administrator. Keep seller-issued records and supporting evidence, and follow the recipient's requirements.
What if my receipt is missing tax information?
Ask the merchant for an itemized duplicate or a correction. Do not infer the original tax from a statewide average. If you create a personal reconstruction, identify it as such and retain the source records.
