The abolition of border control at internal border of EU<br />

Member States has led to the increasing number of<br />

counterfeit documents. The ones who use counterfeit<br />

documents are part of very well-organized criminal<br />

networks. These groups deal with human trafficking, stolen<br />

cars, heritage goods, counterfeit money and other crimes<br />

with a cross-border character, making huge profits from<br />

these crimes in a short time.<br />

At the Eur<strong>op</strong>ean level it is required good co<strong>op</strong>eration<br />

between all Member States to counteract these phenomena.<br />

To reduce the number of counterfeit documents, it is used<br />

printing machines and special apparatus for creating safety<br />

elements that are very difficult to reproduce using<br />

common counterfeiting techniques. However, in practice<br />

false-document effects can be achieved in many ways. The<br />

paper focuses on the counterfeiting of travel documents by<br />

identifying the methods used to analyse the counterfeit<br />

documents and it is revealed the differences between genuine<br />

and fake documents.<br />

Travel documents can be exposed at risk of counterfeiting<br />

and criminal activity. Safeguarding and protecting them<br />

require specialized knowledge and an on-going effort of<br />

being up to date with male practices which pose a threat to<br />

their security. This appears to be an international current<br />

issue that needs to be tackled by authorities.<br />
