Legal limitations for copying

A

It is an offence to make reproductions of certain items or documents with the intent to commit
fraud. This memorandum is intended to be a guide rather than a complete list. We suggest you
check with relevant legal authorities if in doubt about a particular item or document.

The following are examples of documents which may not be copied:

Money

Bonds or other certificates of debt

Certificates of Deposit

Armed Forces Service or Draft papers.

Passports

Postage Stamps (cancelled or uncancelled)

Immigration Papers

Welfare documents

Cheques or Drafts drawn by Governmental Agencies

Identification Documents, badges or insignias

Licences and Certificates of Title to motor vehicles

Copyrighted works cannot be copied. Sections of a copyrighted work can be copied for ‘fair
dealing’. Multiple copies would indicate improper use.

Works of art should be considered the equivalent of copyrighted works.

Licenses and Certificates of Title to motor vehicles may not be copied under certain
state/provincial laws.
