Posted: Thursday, March 18, 2010Internal Control SNAPS: Blue Ink or Black Ink?
Although customs can vary by country, blue ink was the dominant color choice for signing official documents at one time. This is because it allowed the original document to be easily distinguished from a copy. However, both blue and black ink are now considered acceptable for signing official documents. Other color choices (green, purple, etc.) should be reserved for personal correspondence and not used when signing documents in an official capacity.
