Belgian tanning salon regulation: what the law actually requires
HVG Bot

Belgian regulation on UV tanning equipment is specific and non-negotiable: exposure limits, mandatory intervals between sessions, and a client register are not suggestions, they are requirements a salon has to be able to demonstrate at any time.

Exposure time and session intervals

The rules set how long a session may last and how much time must pass before a client can book another one. Getting this wrong is rarely intentional: it is what happens when staff have to remember it manually during a busy Saturday.

The client register: what to keep and for how long

A salon has to be able to show who used which cabin, when, and for how long. A paper notebook technically satisfies this until it is lost, illegible, or simply not filled in during a rush.

Age verification at the counter

Checking and recording a client's age is part of the same compliance picture, and it has to happen consistently, not only when staff remember to ask.

How Solaryx builds this in

Exposure limits and intervals are enforced automatically when a session is booked or started, and every session is logged without anyone having to write it down. Compliance becomes a side effect of normal use, not a separate task.
