Where can a van or truck drive in France?

Light commercial vehicles and anything over 3.5t. This is the class most tools flatten into the car answer, and the class that gets stopped.

11 of the 18 French cities that record a rule for a van or truck set a Crit'Air floor; 7 record the class but require no sticker.

Rules in force on 2 August 2026, read from each authority's own published zone rather than applied from the car table.

Vans up to 3.5t and vehicles over 3.5t carry the same Crit'Air floor in every French city we hold. That is why this is one page and not two — the sources record them separately, and today they agree everywhere. If a future ingest makes them diverge, this page splits.
