ATC have no knowledge about what your operating limits are.

For most light aircraft its a maximum demonstrated crosswind that's in the book not a limit.

For commercial stuff there are aircraft restrictions, crew restrictions, performance restrictions.

These may change with country of registration, country of AoC, maint state etc etc.

its not really its your runway which allows you to do what you like, its more ATC have no knowledge or legislation to say anything. I will qualify that to civilian controllers and runways in the UK. The rules are slightly different with mil fields in the UK. But all they will do is submit a MOR on you and when it hits the CAA it will get logged for statistical purposes and you will hear nothing about it.

Once your outside the Uk you will have to check the local AIP.
