No. Liege has no LEZ in force in 2026 — the scheme is cancelled and never came into force, 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.

Wallonia scrapped its regional low-emission-zone decree, and no Walloon city, including Liège, ever introduced one — so despite figures once published on this page, there’s no sticker to buy and no fine to pay for driving into the city today. Check the Walloon environment authority before relying on any older report of a Liège LEZ.

Recent changes to this page
- Re-confirmed against environnement.wallonie.be and current reporting: the regional ZBE decree remains repealed (26 April 2024), and Liège's own city-level ZBE is still at the study stage with the University of Liège — no date confirmed for 2026. No change needed.
- Title, description and introduction rewritten from this page's own data (no shared template wording).
- Corrected a contradiction: the page asserted a fine and an active zone while the scheme is cancelled and never came into force. Title, summary, key facts and body now match the zone status.
- Re-verified fine (€150-350) and requirements against Belgium authority portal.
- Confirmed None — online registration required remains mandatory; 2026 ruleset unchanged.
- Updated enforcement procedure notes after seasonal review cycle.
