This isn't quite explicited in the rules, so a lot of it may depend on your GM'S thoughts.
I'd say that an Illegal license is a digital cert which, like a morphing license plate, can alter automatically or manually to fit the location or the lie.
A legal license, however, would only apply on the territory in which it is issued, and any territory with an agreement of mutual recognition. So, maybe Ares and the UCAS both recognize the same gun license as being legitimate, but if you're in the PCC, the heat will still make you hand over the guns.
