From January 2023, it will be illegal to drive a car without an emissions badge in many city centres in Spain. Towns and cities with a population of greater than 50.000 people will be introducing low emissions zones in which to enter, the car must display an emissions badge.
These badges are available from Correos and cost 5€ - from the N332 site is the following:-
Low Emissions Zones in Urban Areas - UPDATE!!!
As of 1st January 2023, the Low Emission Zones (ZBE) SHOULD be operational in all municipalities with a population of more than 50,000 inhabitants.
We know that many of you are worried about it, but we would like to inform you that nowadays only 13% percent of the cities have adapted to this new regulation.
There will be exceptions for those who live in these areas, but for those who wish to drive through them will have to display the environmental sticker required by the authorities or use another method of transportation.
The Government has given until the 31st of December 2023 (1 year!!), to all municipalities with a population of more than 50,000 inhabitants to apply the Climate Change Law and restrict the access of certain polluting vehicles to the city centers.
