Oregon DUII Ignition Interlock Requirements (2026): Diversion, Conviction & Approved Providers
Oregon calls its offense DUII (Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants) and requires an ignition interlock for virtually every DUII — both on diversion and on conviction. The removal standard is 90 consecutive days with no negative reports. Low-income drivers enrolled in SNAP may qualify for waived service fees through Oregon’s OHA-contracted vendor. A third DUII conviction results in permanent revocation.
| Offense term | DUII (Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants) — ORS 813.010. Bicycle DUII is exempt from the IID requirement. |
| All-offender? | Effectively yes — IID required for all DUII convictions (ORS 813.602(1)) and for diversion entry at BAC 0.08%+, refusal, or drugs present (ORS 813.645) |
| Diversion — IID term | The 1-year diversion period; court shall order IID if BAC 0.08%+, refusal, or drugs present. May move to vacate after 6 consecutive months with no negative reports + treatment compliance (ORS 813.645) |
| 1st conviction — IID term | 1 year after the suspension ends (ORS 813.602(1)(a)) |
| 2nd conviction — IID term | 2 years after the end of suspension/revocation; base DUII suspension is 3 years. No hardship permit for 2nd+ conviction. |
| 3rd conviction | Permanent revocation; may petition the court no sooner than 10 years (ORS 809.235). IID for 2 years after any suspension ends. |
| Aggravated vehicular homicide / manslaughter | IID for 5 years after any suspension ends (ORS 813.602(2)) |
| Removal requirement | Certificate showing no negative report for the last 90 consecutive days (ORS 813.635); DMV terminates the IID requirement. In diversion: may move court to vacate after 6 consecutive clean months. |
| Negative report in final 90 days | Extends the requirement until 90 consecutive days pass from the most recent negative report. Negative report = tampering, unauthorized removal, lockout, or recorded test violation. |
| Indigence waiver | OHA-contracted vendor waives service-center fees for qualifying indigent customers. Must show current-month SNAP enrollment at each service visit. Only the OHA-contracted vendor provides this. |
| DMV fees | Reinstatement $85 (waived if a valid hardship permit was active at suspension end); hardship permit application $75 (non-refundable) |
| Diversion fees | Filing fee $490 + $150 DUII screening fee (ORS 813.240) |
| SR-22 equivalent | “Future responsibility filing” (ORS 806.240) — Oregon’s term for the SR-22 equivalent; 3 years from filing date |
| Who certifies devices | Oregon State Police (OSP) — oregon.gov/osp — IID Program |
| Governing law | ORS 813.602; 813.635; 813.645; 813.240; 806.240; 806.245 |
Diversion vs. conviction — two different IID paths
Oregon offers a DUII diversion program as an alternative to conviction. The IID requirements differ depending on which path applies:
- Diversion: The court shall order an IID for the 1-year diversion period if your BAC was 0.08%+, you refused the test, or drugs were present. After 6 consecutive months with no negative reports and treatment compliance, you may move the court to vacate the diversion early under ORS 813.645. If diversion is successfully completed, the DUII charge is dismissed — no conviction record.
- Conviction: DMV imposes the IID requirement after your suspension ends. Duration: 1 year (1st conviction), 2 years (2nd), 2 years (3rd, but underlying revocation is permanent with a 10-year petition minimum).
If you are on diversion, your IID is ordered by the court and monitored through the court process. If you are convicted, the IID requirement is administered by Oregon DMV. The provider and device are the same; the administrative path differs.
Indigence waiver: SNAP enrollment = waived service fees
Oregon’s OHA (Oregon Health Authority) contracts with one IID vendor to provide waived service-center fees for indigent customers. To access this benefit:
- Eligibility: Current SNAP enrollment (measured against federal SNAP income standards)
- Documentation: Current-month SNAP enrollment documentation, presented at each service visit
- Important: Only the OHA-contracted vendor provides this benefit — other vendors do not. Contact OSP or OHA to identify the current contracted vendor before choosing a provider if cost relief is needed.
OSP-certified providers
Oregon State Police certifies both providers and individual installers. Three major national brands are on the current OSP list. Guardian, Dräger, and ALCOLOCK are not on the Oregon list. ADS also appears on the OSP list as an additional approved vendor.
| Provider | Monthly est. | Coverage | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intoxalock | $60–100 | Statewide | 888-283-5899 |
| Smart Start | $70–100 | Statewide | 800-831-3299 |
| LifeSafer | $65–95 | Statewide | 800-634-3077 |
Confirm current OSP certification at oregon.gov/osp before signing. Guardian, Dräger, and ALCOLOCK are not on the Oregon list. If seeking the indigence waiver (SNAP-based), contact OSP or OHA first to identify the current OHA-contracted vendor — only that vendor provides the service fee waiver.
What an interlock costs in Oregon

Over a 1-year post-conviction IID term: roughly $900–1,400 before DMV fees. SNAP-enrolled drivers may have service fees waived at the OHA-contracted vendor. Estimate your exact cost →
How to get installed — 5 steps
- Determine whether you are on diversion (court-ordered IID for the diversion period) or convicted (DMV-administered IID after suspension ends). The administrative path differs; your provider and device are the same either way.
- If you may qualify for the indigence waiver (SNAP enrollment), contact OSP or OHA to identify the current OHA-contracted vendor before choosing a provider. Only that vendor provides the service fee waiver.
- Contact an OSP-certified provider, confirm current certification, and schedule installation. Bring your diversion or DMV paperwork to the appointment.
- Drive with a clean record. The removal standard is 90 consecutive days with no negative reports — any tampering, lockout, or test violation restarts the 90-day clock. For diversion, 6 consecutive clean months allows a motion to vacate early.
- When your 90-consecutive-day clean certificate is issued by the provider, DMV terminates the IID requirement. For diversion, bring the certificate to the court to move for early vacation of the diversion after 6 clean months.
