Active means the license, bond, and insurance are all currently valid and the contractor is legally authorized to perform work under that endorsement. Always check that bond and insurance expiration dates are also in the future - a license can show as active while individual coverages approach expiry. The contractor's full record shows each date separately.

Yes. This directory covers all 18 Oregon CCB endorsement types, including CGC1, CGC2, CSC1, and CSC2 commercial licenses. Commercial endorsements carry higher bond and insurance minimums than residential types, and require a minimum number of years of verified key employee construction experience.
