Salamanca low-emission zone (ZBE): rules, labels & fines

Salamanca's ZBE ordinance was definitively approved on 28 May 2024 and published in the BOP de Salamanca no. 109 on 6 June 2024. ZBE 1 (the largely pedestrian historic centre, enlarged when the ordinance took effect) is access-controlled: residents, garage holders, essential services, PMR card holders and purpose-authorised vehicles may enter. Label-based restrictions for the wider area reportedly start only in 2029. In January 2026 the regional ombudsman (Procurador del Común) asked the city to review whether the ordinance meets legal requirements and, if not, to suspend it.

Notes: Ordinance text in the BOP was not opened (BOP site unreachable); the access regime is described from the city's reply quoted in the Procurador del Común resolution (Jan 2026). That resolution recommends the city review the ordinance and suspend it if defects are found; the city's response is unknown. Camera enforcement in ZBE 1 is claimed only by an aggregator. Label calendar per RACE (not verified in the ordinance): no label-based restrictions until 2029; 2029–2033 no unlabelled vehicles; 2034–2038 no unlabelled or B; from 2039 only 0/ECO, residents excepted.
