Crit'Air Stickers

in Overseas Campsites & Touring #1

We're off to Disneyland Paris this weekend and staying at Camping Paris Est. I'd completely forgotten about the need for a Crit'Air sticker, I'm trying to see if I can order a sticker (in the hope to get it back before Sunday) but the website doesn't seem to be working on any device I use (laptop, iPad, iPhone). We don't plan on driving into the city centre so we will not be going in the centre of the Boulevard de Peripherique (E15). Our route to the campsite is via the A86, now from reading a few different sites I'm getting conflicting messages on whether I need one or not. Can anybody provide any advice on if I need to obtain one? Also, what are the means of getting caught? Over-head motorway cameras, police stop checks, etc? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    DisneylandParis is well outside the zone where CritAir certificates are required, as are the campsites nearby.

    However if you take the trouble to Google “Do I need a Crit Air certificate for Camping Paris Est? “ which is much closer to the city you will get an answer saying that certificates are required there. So perhaps change your campsite plan.

    Thanks for the advice, bit late to change the campsite now as we're all paid up. Just hope I can get a sticker in time. If not, I think I'll have to run the risk.

    As long as you get the email you are OK. You dont have to have the actual sticker. Do make sure you are using the correct French govt site.

    Thank you very much for the advice, I did a bit more digging and found that was the case, they even inform you when you purchase it that you do not need the sticker and the email will suffice until you get it (panic over). Might be worth the club updating its Low Emissions Zone page to reflect that information.
