ohio revised code body art

Body Art includes the practice of tattooing, permanent makeup, and/or body piercing. Body Art in Ohio is regulated under the authority of Chapter 3730.01 of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC) and Chapter 3701-9 of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC).

These rules and regulations have been established to protect public health. Body Art procedures present opportunities for the transmission of blood-borne pathogens and bacterial infections. Our role in ensuring the safety of the public is routinely conducting comprehensive inspections of approved (licensed) Body Art establishments, paying particular attention to the body art practices, sanitization and sterilization procedures, record-keeping, and overall maintenance of the establishment.

In order to open a body art facility in Clermont County, approval must first be obtained from the local zoning office, and facility plans must be submitted to Clermont County Public Health and the Clermont County Building Inspections Department. Please read the ‘Guide to New Body Art Establishments’ and submit the Body Art Plan Review Application.

Time-limited/Temporary Body Art event is a tattoo or body piercing business that operates on a time-limited basis, in conjunction with a specific event. Examples of such events are fairs, biker rallies, conventions, and other gatherings. This requires a permit from Clermont County Public Health.

The requirements are the same as for a permanent body art establishment. Please note that we do require a hand sink with running water at these events. If the proposed site does not have access to a hand sink in close proximity, there are portable sinks that can be rented by companies that provide portable toilets.

Clermont County Public Health encourages you to know the risks associated with body art and ask the right questions of your body artists.
