Apply for a fine dust sticker
Description
For areas with poor air quality, there are air pollution control plans. Air pollution control plans contain measures to improve air quality. Environmental zones are a possible measure of such air pollution control plans. Environmental zones reduce particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide pollution. Vehicles with high pollutant emissions are not allowed to drive in environmental zones.
If you want to drive your vehicle in such an environmental zone, you must purchase a fine dust sticker/ environmental badge. The badge is available in three different colours, each of which is assigned to a pollutant group. The classification of your vehicle in one of the pollutant groups depends on the emission key numbers. These can be found in the vehicle documents.
Note: A separate traffic sign indicates the environmental zones. The additional sign indicates the colours of the badges with which vehicles can travel freely in the specific environmental zone.
There are clean air plans for areas with poor air quality. Clean air plans contain measures to improve air quality. Low emission zones are one possible measure in such clean air plans. Low emission zones reduce particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide pollution. Vehicles with high pollutant emissions are not allowed to drive in low emission zones.
To enter such an environmental zone with a vehicle, a fine dust sticker / environmental sticker must be purchased and affixed to the windshield. The sticker is available in three different colors, each of which is assigned to a pollutant group. The classification of the vehicle into one of the pollutant groups is based on the emission code numbers. These can be found in the vehicle documents.
A separate traffic sign indicates the environmental zones. The additional sign shows the colors of the stickers that allow vehicles to drive freely in the specific environmental zone.

The badges are issued by the registration office of your district or your district-free city (main residence) as well as by all bodies that are authorized to carry out the exhaust gas test. In addition to the testing centres of the monitoring organisations (e.g. TÜV, Dekra), these are also many automotive workshops.
The fine dust sticker can be applied for at any vehicle registration authority.
It can also be obtained from any body authorized to carry out exhaust emission tests. In addition to the test centers of the monitoring organizations (e.g. TÜV, DEKRA), this also includes many garages.
Tip: Some urban and county counties provide online services. You can use this to order an environmental badge. You pay by direct debit, bank transfer or credit card. The badge will be sent to you by post. The exact regulations can be found on the internet offers.
The fine dust sticker can be applied for in person at the licensing authority or online from other providers.
If you are planning to drive into an environmental zone, make an effort to buy a fine dust sticker / environmental badge at an early stage if possible. If there are delays and you do not have a fine dust sticker / environmental badge, you are not allowed to drive into the environmental zone.
The fine particle sticker is affixed to the windshield, preferably on the bottom right of the passenger side. The license plate number on the sticker must match the current license plate number of the vehicle. If no fine particle sticker/environmental sticker is attached to the vehicle, it is not permitted to drive in the environmental zone.
