Oregon Statutes - Chapter 79 - Secured Transactions - Section 79.0311 - UCC 9-311. Perfection of security interests in property subject to certain statutes, regulations and treaties.

(1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (4) of this section, the filing of a financing statement is not necessary or effective to perfect a security interest in property subject to:

(a) A statute, regulation or treaty of the United States whose requirements for a security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the property preempt ORS 79.0310 (1);

(b) ORS chapter 830 and the Oregon Vehicle Code;

(c) A certificate-of-title statute of another jurisdiction which provides for a security interest to be indicated on the certificate as a condition or result of the security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the property; or

(d) ORS 446.611 (1).

(2) Compliance with the requirements of a statute, regulation or treaty described in subsection (1) of this section for obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor is equivalent to the filing of a financing statement under this chapter. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (4) of this section and ORS 79.0313, 79.0316 (4) and (5) and 79.0334 for goods covered by a certificate of title or for a manufactured structure, a security interest in property subject to a statute, regulation or treaty described in subsection (1) of this section may be perfected only by compliance with those requirements, and a security interest so perfected remains perfected notwithstanding a change in the use or transfer of possession of the collateral.

(3) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (4) of this section and ORS 79.0316 (4) and (5), duration and renewal of perfection of a security interest perfected by compliance with the requirements prescribed by a statute, regulation or treaty described in subsection (1) of this section are governed by the statute, regulation or treaty. In other respects, the security interest is subject to this chapter.

(4) During any period in which collateral subject to a statute specified in subsection (1)(b) or (d) of this section is inventory held for sale or lease by a person or leased by that person as lessor and that person is in the business of selling goods of that kind, this section does not apply to a security interest in that collateral created by that person.
