About this Package
Before you can serve or sell alcohol in Louisiana, you need to earn your server permit, also called a bar card. To do this, you must first complete a Responsible Vendor training course and pass an exam.
Our Responsible Vendor course is approved in Louisiana and ensures you can easily meet the requirements for selling and serving alcohol.
Once you complete the course and pass the final exam with a score of at least 70%, we will report your training to the Louisiana Alcohol and Tobacco Control. Then, your official bar card will be available for you to print from their website within 4-7 days.
