Depending on the size of the stain - Hairspray is great at removing ink stains from most leathers. Best way is to spray onto a cotton bud first.

Usual precautions apply - test on inconspicious area first to check for colour fastness. Worth a try.

Have the seat re-dyed

Several years ago, a black, permanent magic marker leaker from my sons pocket onto my beige leather A4 passenger seat creating a 1" stain. Dealer removed the seat cover and sent it out to be re-dyed. Cost was about 85 usd (8 years ago). Seat looked brand new!

Try methylated spirits works on some inks.

Try some baby wipes first (no joke), and if those dont work, move up to more harsher things.

If you can get a hold of it, get some Zymol leather cleaner - The stuff really is sh*t hot.

If that doesn't shift it, then you'll have to try some far stonger remedies.
