Quick Answer

No. Amiens has no ZFE in force in 2026 — the scheme is announced but never enacted, so no sticker, permit or fine applies to any vehicle today. Any penalty figure you see quoted elsewhere refers to a scheme that is not operating. We track the responsible authority and will publish the requirement here if it launches.

Didn’t France abolish its low-emission zones?

No — the repeal never took effect. Parliament did vote in April 2026 to abolish France’s ZFEs, which is why so many guides and news reports say they are gone. The Conseil constitutionnel struck that article down on 21 May 2026 (décision n° 2026-903 DC), so the ZFE provisions of the code général des collectivités territoriales (articles L. 2213-4-1 and L. 2213-4-2) stayed on the books.

One caveat most coverage misses: the article was annulled on procedure, not on its merits — the Council held it was a “cavalier législatif”, an amendment with no link to the bill it was attached to (Constitution, art. 45). Parliament can pass the same repeal again in a properly related bill, so this is settled for now rather than settled for good. Read the decision.

Recent changes to this page

  • Title, description and introduction rewritten from this page's own data (no shared template wording).
  • We publish this zone under two addresses. This one now points search engines to /emission-zones/amiens/ as the main page, so the two stop competing with each other. Nothing on this page has been removed.
  • Corrected a contradiction: the page asserted a fine and an active zone while the scheme is announced but never enacted. Title, summary, key facts and body now match the zone status.
  • Re-verified fine (EUR 68 (cars), EUR 135 (lorries)) and requirements against France authority portal.
  • Confirmed Crit'Air vignette required remains mandatory; 2026 ruleset unchanged.
  • Updated enforcement procedure notes after seasonal review cycle.
