LOW EMISSION ZONE (LEZ) IN PARIS, FRANCE: HOW DO I GET A LOW EMISSION ZONE STICKER?
If you’re planning a trip to France in your rental car, then you’ve probably heard about them: the low emission zones and the accompanying low emission zone stickers.
We've looked into it for you, and this is how to get one of those stickers for your rental car. As soon as you pick up your car, you’ll know the license plate number. With this number, you can purchase the sticker online via the following link: https://certificat-air.gouv.fr/en/demande-ext/cgu. Proof of payment of this sticker, combined with the rental agreement, is sufficient for when you are checked.
Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about which car to book: all rental cars in our fleet meet the emission standards of the low emission zones.
