No. Ostrava has no LEZ in force in 2026 — the scheme is planned but not yet in 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.
