Registering an out-of-state purchace

I just purchased a 2017 Majestic 19g in Everett, WA. The temporary Washington trip permit is valid for 3 days. I'll need to get this 19g registered in Oregon; however, since the world has shut down, specifically the Oregon DMV, do I need to worry too much about the Washington temp permit being expired? The new to me RV does not have plates, just the temp permit.https://www.oregon.gov/odot/DMV/docs/Citation_Moratorium_Memo.pdf
Thanks for any help you may provide to this RV newbie!

I really doubt any PD is going to tell you or authorize you to operate an unregistered MV on any public highway. The best you can do is get some kind of DMV extension on the temp. Make sure you at least have insurance. If your state requires an inspection that will also need to be addressed.

I'd get OR police or highway patrol input, document what they say and keep it in the RV. What about insurance as that would be my main concern?

If I had insurance I'd probably use the RV in OR.

Oregon DMV is shut down for phone calls and emails? Try a little harder.
