N4 · Obligation · te-form verb + もかまわない

it is all right even if

te-form verb + もかまわない

てもかまわない means doing something is acceptable; it is slightly more formal than てもいい.

It is common for permission, rules, or concessions.

鉛筆で書いてもかまいません。

It is fine to write in pencil.

In permission sentences, かまわない means 'it is fine,' not necessarily careless indifference.

かまわない means 'it does not matter / it is fine.'
