Driving a car in the Toulouse Metropolitan area
Low emissions zones – ZFE
French cities and towns are introducing low-emission zones to combat air pollution. In these zones, the most polluting vehicles are not allowed to drive or park. Toulouse Métropole has set up a ZFE zone since 1st March 2022. This zone corresponds to the entire area inside the ring road.
The Crit’air sticker
The Crit'air sticker is compulsory in the ZFE zone, throughout the entire country where these zones have been set up. It comes in the form of a sticker to be affixed to the windscreen. It classifies the vehicle from category 0 to 5 according to the level of air pollutant emissions it generates, 5 being the most polluting, with vehicles that are too old not being classified.
