Where it is

The zone covers central Rouen and is set by Métropole Rouen Normandie. Boundaries follow specific streets, so check the official map before you rely on being just outside it.

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.
