    At the minute, unfortunately, there are none. The industry is unregulated.

    If you are looking to do so however, I would recommend that at a minimum you ensure that you have everything covered, with a safe, clean premises, sterilization equipment, hazardous material disposal, full training on tattooing (through an apprenticeship, not through a paid course!), public liability insurance, and blood borne pathogen certification.
