Liability for additions was set by a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated May 24, 1961 (Vedomosti Verkhovnogo Soveta SSR, 1961, no. 22, p. 225), which emphasized the special danger of additions as an antistate action that harms the national economy of the USSR.

The crime is punishable by deprivation of freedom for up to three years.
