A van is not exempt simply because you use it for work or because it is registered abroad. Check the low-emission zone rules for its registration category.

Check deliveries and work addresses

A customer’s premises or loading bay may be inside a zone even if your main route uses a motorway. Check the final approach. A local business exemption, where available, is a separate application to the responsible authority.

Before you buy

Check your destination and the registration documents we need. If you are unsure whether an exemption applies, ask us before you order.
