Frequently asked questions

What should a tattoo receipt include?

Include the tattoo description and placement, time spent, artist name, deposit amount if one was taken previously, and total received. Some clients keep receipts for insurance purposes if the tattoo covers a scar or medical marking.

Should tattoo artists take deposits and issue receipts for them?

Yes. A deposit receipt at booking protects both you and the client. Note the appointment date, the design agreed, and that the deposit is non-refundable if the client cancels late.

Do tattoo studios need to charge sales tax?

It depends on your location. Some regions tax tattoo services, others don't. Check with a local accountant and make sure your receipts reflect the correct tax treatment.
