A tattoo is acceptable if the tattoo was applied by a state-regulated entity using sterile needles and ink that is not reused. Cosmetic tattoos applied in a licensed establishment in a regulated state using sterile needles and ink that is not reused is acceptable. You should discuss your particular situation with the health historian at the time of donation.

So how do you determine if the tattoo Of your server or whatever is in compliance. I don't have a tattoo,but I don't care if you do or not until it becomes a health issue. Then I care. I always remember the joke about the young lady who had a tattoo of a butterfly on her breast. later in life, it appeared to be a butterfly on her waistline.
