Final Weekend for Cannabis Social Equity Registration
The registration window for Cannabis Social Equity retail licenses closes next Tuesday, July 1. If you are interested in a Cannabis Social Equity license, you need to register before the window closes. Registration is the first step in the Social Equity Licensing process and does not guarantee a license.
Please register via LCB's online Portal. Review a user guide for steps on registering in the Portal here.
Please Note:
The process for the Cannabis Social Equity Program has changed. You do not need to apply with Business Licensing Services (BLS). You also do not need to create a SAW or LCB Portal account to register.
Be sure to review the Social Equity License qualifications before registering to make sure you meet the eligibility requirements found in WAC 314.55.570. You can also view these requirements in the videos found here.
