Colmar ZFE 2026: Listed by Some, Enacted by No One
Zone à Faibles Emissions · France · Announced but never introduced
Source: official source · Verified: 2026-07-24
No — there is no low-emission zone in force in Colmar. A ZFE was listed or considered but never introduced, so no sticker, permit or fine applies today. Confirm on the official local authority site before travelling.
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.
