Barcelona: Environmental sticker mandatory for all foreign cars
Barcelona has had an environmental zone since 2020 and an environmental sticker is mandatory in the inner ring. Spanish rental cars have those, of course, but foreign cars need a permit to drive in Barcelona. If you are planning to visit Barcelona with your Dutch or Belgian car, make sure you have applied for a permit from AMB in good time, so that you do not run the risk of an unnecessary fine (there will be checked with cameras when you enter the city centre).
The registration and application for day permits can be done online here. Click on 'Registration request'. On the next page, choose the country where your car is registered (note: 'The Netherlands' under the T) and choose 'Fast procedure to request 10 daily permits'. Enter your details and those of your car and you will need to upload a photo of the front and back of your vehicle registration document on the page. At the bottom you can enter the dates of your visit to Barcelona. You pay with a credit card (can sometimes cause problems with foreign credit cards.. The environmental sticker costs €5 per day. If you are registered you can also buy the day permits at the post office, online or locally, for example in Capellades, open from Mon. - Fri from 8.30 am - 2.30 pm (5 min - Google maps).
