Piercing falls under the same Warenwetbesluit on tattooing and piercing as tattooing. SecuSteri records every sterilization cycle for instruments and first-set jewelry in one account, ready for GGD and NVWA visits.
Piercing studios operate under the same Warenwetbesluit on tattooing and piercing (BWBR0021605) as tattoo studios, with the same three-year GGD permit. The LCHV hygiene guideline for piercing is the operational standard. All skin-penetrating instruments must be sterile; reusable instruments — forceps, receiving tubes, needle holders — must be sterilized between clients. First-set jewelry must be sterile and compliant with the nickel-release requirements of NEN-EN 1811. A substantial share of piercing instruments is single-use disposable, but every studio still handling reusable instruments needs documented sterilization. The NVWA and GGD exercise supervision.
