Getting 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.
