When to re-register
You will need to re-register using the application form above if:

What happens next?
After we have received your registration and payment you will be sent a registration certificate and a copy of the byelaws.
Practitioners are required to display their registration certificate and a copy of the byelaws at the premises.
An environmental health officer will carry out an inspection of all newly registered premises to check that the byelaws are being complied with. Routine checks are also made to ensure that standards are being maintained.
Further guidance for skin piercers and tattooists about the standards expected and other legal requirements relevant to premises and practitioners is available.
