Is there a subaru biu key programming (mail-in) shop in Seattle I should use instead?

Does Washington vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Washington discontinued its emissions testing program in 2020 and has no statewide periodic safety inspection. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Washington and federal requirements.
Do I have to bring the car in, or can I mail the module?
For all-keys-lost the BIU is removed and worked on the bench, so it's mail-in: you ship the BIU, we pair a fresh key, and return it ready to install.
Can you add a key if I still have one working key?
Yes - with at least one working key, adding a key is much simpler and is usually a quick programming job rather than a bench EEPROM procedure.
