Low Emission Zone (LEZ) Penalty Charge Notices

Low Emission Zone Penalty Charge Notice

The amount payable for a Penalty Charge Notice varies, but the first charge you will receive for entering the LEZ with a non-compliant vehicle will be £60. Subsequent contraventions within 90 days will result in higher value PCNs being issued. Read more on the Low Emission Zone webpage (What will I be fined?).

If paid within 14 days of the issue date, the penalty charge is discounted by 50%.

If payment is made by post, please allow for postal delays.

If you have appealed within 14 days of the issue date, the discounted rate will be held until a decision on your appeal is reached. 

After 28 days without payment or appeal, the registered keeper will receive a Charge Certificate advising that the fine has increased by a further 50%.  Once this stage has been reached, there is no option to appeal.
