Maryland does not require a state bartending license, but bartenders must be at least 18 years old. Alcohol licensing is handled at the county level, with each county having its own liquor board. While responsible server training is not state-mandated, many Maryland employers — particularly in the Baltimore and DC metro areas — require or encourage it. Serving hours in Maryland generally run from 6:00 AM to 2:00 AM, though some jurisdictions may vary.
