France · Low-emission zone (ZFE)

Toulouse has a ZFE. Its zones differ; the strictest admits Crit'Air 4 and cleaner. Base Nationale Consolidée des ZFE lists it. In force at all hours.

The municipal instrument that sets this has not been read, so the exact requirement — and any exemption it grants — is unconfirmed. Settle it with Toulouse Métropole before you travel.

What you need, by vehicle

Toulouse has 4 zones in force at once. These are the strictest rules of the 4 — meet them and you're legal in all of them, so this is the only table you need.

How to get a Crit'Air sticker

You can order it yourself from the official government service for a few euros — it's the only legitimate source, it's tied to your registration plate, and it arrives by post. Order it well before you travel; delivery abroad takes longer than you'd expect. We don't sell stickers and never will — any site charging you extra for one is just a middleman.
