## Penalties 

2.17.039 The National Federation must appoint qualified and independent persons to manage the registration process and set up suitable procedures. For this procedure, at least one specialist must be involved to assist with legal and financial questions. 

2.17.040 The UCI shall have the right to refuse or withdraw the registration of a team which does not meet all the minimum conditions set in the present regulations or by another regulatory provision. 

Notwithstanding the above, in the event of delay in payment and/or receipt of the registration file by the UCI, the registration fee shall be automatically increased up to CHF 100 per day. Furthermore, without prejudice to article 2.17.038, the UCI will not proceed with the registration of the team without receipt of the entire application for registration and full settlement of all registration fees, including any applicable increases. 

Moreover, the team may only claim the rights related to the UCI continental team or UCI women’s continental team status once its registration has been granted, in particular concerning the provisions set out in article 2.1.007 bis. 

Furthermore, the UCI may pass on the case to the Disciplinary Commission, which may order, in addition to the penalties set out in title 12 of the UCI Regulations, that the National Federation in question is deprived of its right to register UCI road teams for a period which it may determine.
