In 1999, the Florida Legislature passed section 381.0075, Florida Statutes (F.S.), regulating the body-piercing industry. Chapter 64E-19, Florida Administrative Code [F.A.C.] (40kb PDF) contains the rules that were written to implement the statute. New information that affects the body piercing industry will be provided as it becomes available.
The department has produced an educational video to aid piercing salons in complying with required minimum standards. A copy in CD format is provided free to each licensed salon. If you have trouble viewing the video from the CD, read our CD viewing instructions (57kb PDF) . The department also has developed a brochure containing 10 common questions related to body piercing. You can download the brochure in pdf format (1.6mb) or it is available by contacting the body piercing program.
