MAST Permit FAQs: Washington State Requirements
What is a MAST Permit?
MAST stands for Mandatory Alcohol Server Training. It’s a WSLCB-required certification for anyone who serves, mixes, sells, or supervises alcohol sales in Washington liquor-licensed establishments (e.g., bars, restaurants). It ensures safe, legal service and covers alcohol effects, ID checks, and intervention. Enroll in our 3-hour course for $19.99!
Who needs alcohol server training?
Anyone handling alcohol on-premises: bartenders, servers, managers, supervisors, event staff, and tasting coordinators. Off-premises (e.g., grocery tastings) requires Class 12. No permit? Fines up to $500 + jail time.
