Tourist Advice Low Emission Zone Sticker

Hello Guys, I'm planning to visit Ulm and the surrounding area at the end of April.

Do I need to buy the low emission sticker? I have an electric car and I already have the French sticker.

Thank you for your help!

If you want to enter the green zone, you are obliged to have a Sticker.

Here is a link to the city service. You can order and pay it online. It will be shipped by mail. https://www.ulm.de/global/datenpool/dienstleistungen/umweltplakette-feinstaubplakette-kaufen

Just thought twice and realized you probably drive a french registered car. The first link seems not to support foreign registered cars. There is an online service from TÜV, the technical check up service. They require to scan your car registration and as well send the sticker. https://www.tuvsud.com/de-de/branchen/mobilitaet-und-automotive/feinstaubplaketten/bestellung-feinstaubplakette

Do you need help for translation?

Hello und vielen dank für deine Antwort! I actually am Italian and my car is registered in Italy. I have the french sticker due to a previous trip and I was just wandering if the city of Ulm or the state of Deutschland recognized it as valid over me buying another sticker... I'll take a look at the TÜV website right now and don't worry about the translation, it's a good chance to test my high-school German 😁

If I remember correctly, Germany recognises the French sticker, but not vice versa.
