I believe that started with the 2017 code cycle. That's why I asked, and it's important to include what code you are on in your profile.

So, if you are on the 2017 your answer is yes, it needs to be GFCI protected. The 2020 made changes to this article but it won't affect you.

(B) Other Than Dwelling Units. All single-phase receptacles
rated 150 volts to ground or less, 50 amperes or less and threephase
receptacles rated 150 volts to ground or less,
100 amperes or less installed in the following locations shall
have ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for personnel

(2) Kitchens
