I just moved into a new house. I noticed in my powder room that there
is an outlet on the wall directly beside the sink. It does not appear
to be a GFI plug as it has no reset test buttons on it. Does an
outlet that close not have to be a GFI plug ?

Hi,
Plug is male part, LOL. Anyhow a GFCI outlet can take care of several
regular outlet down stream. Even if it is regular outlet, it may be
covered by another GFCI one upstream.

or even in the panel. both my bathroom outlets are covered at the panel,
and have standard outlets in the bathroom
