Hello, I’ll go to Germany by car next weekend. I have bought the green badge (edit : Umweltplakette) that should be applied on the windshield. The badge has been purchased with the details of the vehicle (license plate, VIN,…).
Question : since I probably won’t go to Germany again in the coming years, can I paste the vignette onto some transparent plastic sheet and paste the plastic on the windshield ? So that I can remove it after my trip, and put it again in a few years for the next visit ? I don’t want to reduce the visibility because of another vignette. I already have the French CritAir, the Swiss, … my windshield starts to looks like those laptops full of stickers.
What’s the risk ? Since I have the vignette legally paid ?
As someone else said in this thread, it’s not legal. And it’s surprisingly expensive, fines for not having the sticker is roughly 100 Euros. I believe getting caught doing what OP has suggested will be fined just the same.
