Savona’s historic centre is a permit-only ZTL: residents, businesses and other authorised drivers get in, and your car’s Euro class plays no part. The Comune handles permits through its online service desk but publishes no gate timetable, so the sign at the entrance is the rule. Entering without authorisation carries the national EUR 83-332 penalty.

Savona ZTL — Zona a Traffico Limitato
The Zona a Traffico Limitato keeps Savona’s historic centre closed to general traffic. Access is granted by permit, not by emission class, and cameras compare each plate with the list of authorised vehicles.
Who can enter
- Residents holding a ZTL permit
- Businesses and deliveries with the relevant authorisation
- Disabled-badge holders
- Guests of accommodation inside the zone, once the plate has been registered
Getting a permit
Requests go through the Comune di Savona’s sportello telematico, which requires a digital login. The same desk handles temporary permits, renewals, changes of plate, duplicates and returns of a permit.
Operating hours
The Comune does not publish a timetable for the ZTL. Read the panel at the gate: if it shows the zone as active, you need a permit to pass.
Fines
Entering without authorisation is sanctioned under article 7 comma 14 of the Codice della Strada: EUR 83 to EUR 332, with the minimum reduced to EUR 58.10 if paid within five days of notification. Rental companies forward the notice and usually add a fee.
Tips for visitors
- Ask your hotel to register your plate before you drive in.
- Without a permit, park outside the ZTL and walk; a short pass-through counts the same as a full entry.

Recent changes to this page
- Removed 'Weekdays 08:00-20:00' from the quick answer, key-facts table and Operating Hours section, and the EUR 83-332 figure: the Comune's ZTL page publishes neither, and the title already said so. The fine is now the statutory EUR 83-332 under art. 7 c.14 of the Codice della Strada, the national rule for unauthorised ZTL entry. Listed the online permit procedures the Comune runs.
- Fixed a contradiction: the title says the fine "isn't officially confirmed," but the whats-changed widget still claimed it was "confirmed for 2026." Rewrote that widget to match the page's honest framing. Re-checked comune.savona.it: still no published fine or hours figure.
- Title, description and introduction rewritten from this page's own data (no shared template wording).
- Re-verified fine (EUR 83-332) and requirements against Italy authority portal.
- Confirmed ZTL permit required remains mandatory; 2026 ruleset unchanged.
- Updated enforcement procedure notes after seasonal review cycle.
