After getting a tattoo, you should wait two to three weeks before going swimming. In the first few days, the area of the tattoo will be inflamed and will require topical antibiotics. And for the first couple weeks, your skin will need time to heal. Swimming in salt water or highly chlorinated water will especially aggravate the healing process.

It will depend on how long it takes for your wound to heal. But normally, the wound from tattoo heals between 2 to 4 weeks.
