Alcohol Certification Requirements by State (2025)

State Guide

Every U.S. state sets its own rules for safe alcohol service. Some mandate certification (e.g., Texas TABC, Illinois BASSET), while others encourage, but don’t strictly require training. Knowing exactly which certificate, how long it stays valid, and the fastest way to earn it saves you time, money, and potential legal penalties.
