Piercing ages vary by Municipality, District and City in B.C., Under Canadian law (informed consent you need to be made aware of what you want to have done, the risks involved in having it done and the measures taken to ensure everything goes correctly. This would be covered in the waiver that every piercing studio is required by health regulations to complete and retain for every piercing they perform. Under informed consent as long as you are aware of the risks and possible complications you can get your piercing regardless of age, however the City, Municipality or District you live in can have there own regulations and requirements over and above the Federal Regulations. So if you are 18 you can get a piercing without parental consent in Vancouver, but in North Vancouver you need to be 19 years old in order to get a piercing without parental consent. 19 years old being the age of *majority in Canada (*able to vote and therefore make decisions on your own and legally and adult) So every City, Town, Etc. can have higher requirements enforceable under the bylaws. For example you can get ear piercing at the age of 16 years old without parental consent but to get anything else pierced you need to be 19 years old or have a parent sign for you.
