Getting a Tattoo in Bali as an Australian: Complete Guide (2026 Edition)
Every year, tens of thousands of Australians fly to Bali for holidays. But in 2026, Bali is no longer just about beaches, sunsets, and cocktails, it has become one of the top tattoo destinations for Australians.
From Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, more Aussies are choosing to get their tattoos done in Bali instead of Australia. Why?
Because Bali offers world-class tattoo artists, international hygiene standards, faster booking, and significantly lower prices, all while you’re enjoying a tropical holiday.
But before you get inked overseas, there are important things you must know.
This guide will show you exactly how to get a tattoo in Bali safely, professionally, and without regrets.
Why Australians Choose Bali for Tattoos in 2026
Bali is now internationally recognised as a tattoo hotspot. Many artists here are trained in Europe, Australia, and the USA and some even used to work in Australian studios.
Here’s why Australians prefer Bali for tattoos:
Up to 60% cheaper than Australia
No long waiting lists (unlike Sydney or Melbourne)
World-class artists in realism, fine line, blackwork, and Japanese styles
High hygiene standards in professional studios
Tattoo + holiday in one trip
Getting tattooed in Bali is no longer a risk, it’s a smart decision when done at the right studio.
Is It Safe to Get a Tattoo in Bali?
Yes, if you choose a professional studio.

This is why Australians should only choose internationally trusted studios that follow:
