The Spanish Congress approved the Climate Change Act requires municipalities with more than 50.000 inhabitants will have to implement an LEZ by 2023. This affects 7 out of 10 Spanish cities. The law requires 158 cities to implement a low emission zone, which can be restricting older vehicles or restricting all vehicles – both will lower emissions. The national framework allows for a ZEV + PHEV standard. As soon as the cities have confirmed, they will be posted on our website, however, some cities may choose to lower emissions using other methods, and may therefore not implement an LEZ.
Spain has Low Emission Zones, Emergency Schemes and Access Regulations.
It is voluntary for Spanish vehicles to have a sticker, but it may practical to have a sticker, so you do not get stopped to show your papers.
It is not possible for foreign vehicles to get Spanish LEZ stickers. Some websites offer Spanish LEZ stickers to foreign vehicles – but do not buy them they are not official or valid. Barcelona requires foreign vehicles to register (here).
