The specifications for ballpoint pens and refills for general and documentary use are laid forth in the JIS S 6039:2020 standard. Several international standards, including ISO 12757-1:2017 for general use and ISO 12757-2:1998 for documentary use, are aligned with this one; it's vital to mention them.

The degree of agreement between the JIS standard and the pertinent international standards is indicated by symbols in the standard. Based on ISO/IEC Guide 21-1, the symbols used are IDT (identical), MOD (changed), and NEQ (not equivalent).
