HOW OLD DO I HAVE TO BE TO GET A TATTOO?

You must be at least 16 years of age. In Florida, you are permitted to get a tattoo with parental consent as minor between the ages of 16-17. If you are a minor or the parent of the minor getting tattooed and booking an appointment, please let us know so we can ensure there is a notary on site at the time of your appointment as the Florida Health Department requires the parental consent form to be notarized. If there is not a notary on site at the time you’d like to get tattooed you can follow this link, print out the form and have it notarized prior to your appointment. Please bring the form (if you have it completed prior to your appointment) and a valid State or Federal Photo ID for both the minor and the parent.

To be tattooed without parental consent, you must be at least 18 years of age. Not only must you be 18, you have to prove it with a valid State or Federal Photo ID. No exceptions.
