Doing Business in Russia Vs USA Shake Down by Government Regulators Or Mafia

Most business people get quite upset because every time they turn around there is another rule or regulation or some inspector that waltzes into their business to look for some silly violation. And you know they often find one, because no business owner can possibly know all the rules, even the lawyers that specialize have to look them up on a CD Rom (and you thought they used all those fancy law books behind them?).

Additionally, despite their facade, not all lawyers are as intelligent as they purport. They have just spent a lot of time in school studying legal issues and law; much of which will have absolutely no bearing on their actual chosen professional legal niche. As a retired franchisor founder, having actually run a company, I can tell you that I had become intimately familiar with all the legal regulations surrounding our industry.

Firstly, reputable documental ink makers of any size will have already registered the relevant substances and importers of promotional pens or other promotional items containing documental ink can quote the registration details of their supplier. Secondly, if the refills are exported and re-imported as part of a Promotional Pen, this too is exempt provided that the original re-fill supplier already has its component raw materials registered for REACH. Finally, there are specific exemptions which means there is no requirement to register the majority of ingredients contained in documental inks.

Thus, if you are going to Write Legal Regulatory Articles you need to write from the entrepreneur or business man’s point of view, not from the legal point of view. The people who will be reading your article are those that are engaged in the actual industry, they are not lawyers and quite frankly most of them can’t stand the lawyers that they have to overpay each time they have a legal question.

Conclusion

So, in a nutshell, nothing to worry about for small importers of promotional pens, promotional items or business gifts containing documental and even large ones if the imported pens contain inks produced by a REACH Registered supplier. If you are a major importer buying in millions of pens and don’t have these safeguards in place, watch out.
