It is illegal to misuse or forge a Community Authorisation, bilateral or European Conference of Ministers of Transport permit, or to make a false statement in order to obtain one. It is also illegal not to have the right documents for your journey. If you are convicted of such offences, you may be liable to a fine set by the authorities in the country where the offence was committed.

If you are convicted of the misuse of documents, this is grounds for your operator's licence being revoked, suspended or curtailed under the Transport Act 1995.

Furthermore, any fine, forgery or misuse of permits can lead to administrative action being taken against you, including temporary or permanent withdrawal of authorisations or permits.
