A tattoo was a permanent insertion of ink or pigments below the skin using a sharp needle. A number of beings had tattoos, normally for cosmetic reasons or as part of their culture or an organization. Tattooing was also used as a common identification or branding of slaves. One example was the slave trade planet Orvax IV. The Togorian Mezgraf, a former slave of this planet, had his slaver's mark on his right shoulder, still visible through his white fur, and would often wear a long-sleeved jacket to cover it.

A tattooist, or tattoo artist, was a person who drew tattoos on people's skin as a job. Notable examples were Bojam Rees, who made a living as a tattooist on Starstation 12, and the male Lafrarian Nuyu, a tattoo artist and body decorator who ran a small shop on StarForge Station. The Blue Sector of Corellia's capital Coronet hosted a high proportion of tattoo parlors. During the Clone Wars, under the direction of the Jedi, clone troopers were encouraged to adopt nicknames for themselves, get tattoos and customize their armor and even their hairstyles. "Tatooine Tattoo" was shipjacker slang for "price on your head" (Jabba the Hutt level). Tattoos could be concealed with synthskin.
