Cannabis Payment Process Reminders

As a reminder for all cannabis licensees, please review the Payments section of the Cannabis Tax Reporting Guide on the LCB website to set up your payment account and ensure timely processing. You can download a PDF of this guide here.

If you are submitting an ACH payment, the payment date entered in our system is the date you submit your payment request to the bank’s payment portal (Retail Lockbox). Payments cannot be scheduled in advance. Please email your completed Retailer Sales and Tax Form to cannabistaxes@lcb.wa.gov.

You can also make payments by CCRS. Click here for step-by-step instructions. For information on making an administrative payment through CCRS, see the License Administrator Guide on the CCRS Resources page. 

When using the CCRS “Make a Payment” link, your license number and current date are updated by the system. You will need to enter:

  • Payment amount
  • Contact date (name, phone number and email)
  • Banking (routing and bank account) number

Before submitting your request, review to check your information is correct. Once the request is submitted, a payment receipt is sent to the entered email address.

Email your monthly sales/tax report to cannabistaxes@lcb.wa.gov. We recommend submitting your report and payment through CCRS on the same day.

Please reach out to cannabistaxes@lcb.wa.gov with any questions.
