    • Leave page three blank. We will supply a pre-approved diagram to the Summit County Health Department. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE DIAGRAM.

    Fill Out The Official Health Department Application 

  • Each Artist/Piercer needs to provide the following:

    • Bloodborne Pathogens Certificate valid through July 27, 2025.

    • First Aid Certificate Valid Through July 27, 2025.

    • Certificate of Apprenticeship OR Business License Granted by your County's Health Department. 

      • NOTE: The Business License MUST be from your County's Health Department. No other business licenses will be accepted. This document is only valid for the person whose name is on the license (if your business name is on the license but NOT your first and last name, it will not be accepted).  EINs, LLC documentation, etc., will not be accepted.

      • If an artist/piercer does not have an apprenticeship certificate, use THIS TEMPLATE to create one. 

    • NOTE: If you are a piercer, please contact the Summit County Health Department directly for more information of what is required. Your contact is Andrew Deikun, and his email address is Adeikun@schd.org.

  • Health Dept Example with Apprenticeship Cert
    Sample Health Dept Documentations with Business License Issued by Health Department. All t

    The three forms (BBP, First Aid, and Apprenticeship Cert/Business License) MUST be submitted as ONE DOCUMENT per artist/piercer. The Summit County Health Department would like each artist’s certifications on one sheet. DO NOT send them as three separate documents; if you do, you will be required to resubmit them. Click each image on the left to see an example of how this should look.

    VERY IMPORTANT: If your certifications expire BEFORE July 27, 2025, you will be asked to re-submit them. HOWEVER, DO NOT WAIT TO TURN EVERYTHING IN UNTIL YOU RENEW. Instead, turn in everything with the current expiration dates, and the Summit County Health Department will contact you to re-submit.

    The easiest way to send everything as one document is to take a photo and crop it so only the three forms are in the image. Each image on the left is an approved submission.

    NEW FOR 2025

    • Send your completed application and each artist's certification page to info@rubbercitytattooinvitational.com. Put your shop's name in the subject line. 

    • All documentation is due by Friday, May 2, 2025. Even if your certifications expire BEFORE July 27, 2025, you still need to meet this deadline. Turn in everything with the current expiration dates, and the Summit County Health Department will contact you to re-submit when you renew.

    • Submit everything to infor@rubbercitytattooinvitational.com - do not submit directly to the Health Department.
