Spain is one of the UK\u2019s top holiday destinations but British tourists will have to follow some rules.<\/p>\n

The Government has issued new advice for Britons driving in Spain as the country has introduced several low emission zones.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson said: \u201cSome inner city areas in Spain have introduced low emission zones, \u2018zonas de bajas emisiones\u2019 (ZBE) where only vehicles that meet specific exhaust emission standards and display an air pollution sticker can enter.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile air pollution stickers cannot be issued to vehicles with foreign registration plates, some cities do require you to register your vehicle in advance of travel if you wish to enter a low emission zone.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou should check with local authorities in advance of travel for information on local regulations and the requirements for vehicles registered outside of Spain.\u201d<\/p>\n

They added: \u201cSome cities also operate emergency anti-pollution protocols to limit exhaust emissions when air pollution levels are high.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen activated, vehicle access is restricted and speed limits are imposed. Follow the instructions of the local authorities.\u201d<\/p>\n

British tourists may need to register their vehicle in advance if they\u2019re driving their car in a low emission zone city.<\/p>\n
