Amsterdam has low-emission zones
Low-emision zone
Amsterdam has low-emission zones that keep the most polluting passenger cars, trucks, delivery vans, taxis, buses and scooters out of the city. During the harmonization in 2020, the low-emission zone has been aligned within the A10 ring road, as a result of which the RAI has come to lie within the low-emission zone.
The overview below lists the requirements for diesel vehicles around the RAI*.
| Type | Requirements |
| Car | Only diesel vehicles with emission class 5 and higher |
| Delivery van | Only diesel vehicles with emission class 4 and higher, year of construction 2005 |
| Taxi | Only diesel vehicles with emission class 5 and higher |
| Truck | Only diesel trucks with the highest emission class 6 |
| Bus/touring car | Only diesel buses/touring cars with the highest emission class 6 |
*The work terraces and parking garages P1 - P6 are outside the low-emission zone (see map below).
