When Do You Need ID?

We require legal ID for all piercing services, including earlobe piercings for children. For minors who are getting pierced, we require one (1) piece of government ID from the person being pierced, as well as one (1) piece of PHOTO ID from the consenting parent/legal guardian.

Minors aged 16 and up can sign for themselves for basic piercings, and need photo ID. 

What Qualifies as Legal ID?

For minors, legal ID would be anything that was issued by the Provincial or Federal Government (or applicable governing bodies if not living in Canada) that has the following: 

- Name of person being pierced
- Date of birth

Examples include: Passport, BCID, Services Card, Care Card, Birth Certificate

For minors over the age of 16 and all adults, we require photo ID issued by the Provincial or Federal Government (or applicable governing bodies if not living in Canada) that has the following: 

- Name of person being pierced
- Date of birth
- Photo

Examples include: Drivers License, Passport, BCID, BC Services Card (or similar from other provinces)

 All tattoo services require Government-issued photo ID.
