Do you get a criminal record for not paying fares?

Typically penalty fares are incurred by passengers failing to purchase a ticket before travelling or by purchasing an incorrect ticket which does not cover their whole journey. Penalty fares are a civil debt, not a fine, and a person whose penalty fare is paid is not considered to have committed a criminal offence.

Is a TfL fine a criminal record?

No. All TfL ticketing offences are ‘strict liability’. This means that intention is irrelevant and you may be guilty simply by the fact you did not have a valid ticket.
