This allows vehicles that do not meet the required Euro standard to circulate a limited amount of kilometers. The amount allowed depends on vehicle category, fuel type and Euro standard. See list here. The number of kilometers driven is monitored by a black box. MOVE IN is available in the communes named in this list.
