Since 2025, France requires an environmental sticker (Crit'Air) for all vehicles entering low-emission zones in over 40 urban areas. Campers without the sticker face fines of €68 to €135. The sticker costs €5.11 and must be ordered from the official website certificat-air.gouv.fr. Fines can be issued even on highways, such as the M35 in Strasbourg. In Paris and Lyon, only vehicles with Crit'Air class 2 or higher are allowed, affecting diesel campers registered between 2006 and 2010 (class 3).
