The full range

Every session, sorted.

From a quick flash piece to a multi-session custom sleeve, TradieNotes keeps up with the range of jobs UK tattoo artists actually run.

🧼Local authority registration

In the UK, tattooists and their premises must be registered with the local council under the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982 (byelaws vary by council), and it's a criminal offence under the Tattooing of Minors Act 1969 to tattoo anyone under 18, even with parental consent.

💳Deposits & balances

Most studios take a deposit at booking to secure the appointment. Note it separately and it's tracked against the balance due, with both itemised clearly on the invoice.

🎨Multi-session pieces

Large custom work often spans several sessions. Note each session by hour rate or flat rate and it's itemised as its own line or invoice, whichever suits your billing style.

Tattoo Artist FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does it handle deposit and balance payments?+
Yes. Note the deposit taken at booking and it's tracked separately from the balance due on the day, with both itemised clearly.
Can it price multi-session pieces?+
Yes. Note each session separately — by hour rate or flat piece rate — and it's itemised as its own line or invoice.
Does it know about hygiene registration requirements?+
TradieNotes doesn't check licensing for you, but it's worth noting: in the UK, tattooists and their premises must be registered with the local council under the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982 (byelaws vary by council), and it's a criminal offence under the Tattooing of Minors Act 1969 to tattoo anyone under 18.
Can it invoice for touch-ups separately from the original piece?+
Yes. Note it as a touch-up session and it's itemised separately, whether charged as a small fee or included free within a set period.
Does it handle flash pieces vs custom design work?+
Yes. Note the job type — flash piece, custom design, or cover-up — and it's captured accurately on your invoice.
What does tattoo work typically cost in the UK?+
Pricing depends on size, detail, and hours involved — your invoice reflects whatever you actually charged for that session.
Can I invoice for a design consultation separately?+
Yes. Note it as a design consultation fee and it's captured as its own invoice line, distinct from the tattooing session.
Are the invoices VAT and HMRC compliant?+
Yes — every invoice includes your VAT number (if registered), business name, itemised sessions and deposits, and meets HMRC requirements.
Do I need an account?+
No account needed. Create one free to save your invoice history, or just snap and pay £1.
