“Not stated on the official site” means the site doesn't say either way. We never count it as a yes or a no.
“Still being checked” means we found wording on the site but haven't confirmed it yet. It isn't counted as a yes or a no either.
“Tattoos allowed in some form” adds up the first four tattoo labels: allowed, allowed with limits, allowed if covered, and private bath only. What each label means is on How we check.
Places listed without a details page (the official site states none of the three, or we're still checking) are counted: 75 places.
Places whose official site suggests they may be closed, for good or for now, are not counted: 11 places.
Percentages are of all places we list in that area, rounded to a whole number, so a column may not add up to exactly 100%.
These are counts of what official websites say. They aren't ratings. Rules change, and each place's page shows the date we checked.
The numbers in the tables above as a CSV file: one row per area, and one for all areas. Summary counts only — for what each place says, see its page, where every rule is quoted with its source and the date we checked.
