ZTL fine in Italy: how much and how it adds up
A ZTL fine in Italy is counted by days, not by entries. Enter how many days you drove in and the notice date: the calculator gives the total and the deadlines.
Independent site, not a city service: the municipal order and the signs at the gate are what count.

Art. 7 Highway Code · art. 198 · art. 202 · art. 203 · Normattiva, read on 13 November 2026
Anyone who drives into an Italian limited-traffic zone without authorisation while it is active gets the fine set by article 7, paragraph 14, of the Highway Code: €83 to €332. Since 14 December 2024, article 198, paragraph 2-bis provides that when entries into the same ZTL are recorded by cameras, a single fine applies for each calendar day: three entries on one day make one fine, three different days make three. Under article 202 you pay the minimum, €83, within 60 days of notice, and 30% less, €58.10, within 5 days. If you neither pay nor appeal, the amount becomes half the maximum, €166. In charging zones such as Milan’s Area C, paragraph 14-bis adds the day’s charge. Driving in with a vehicle banned for its emissions risks €168 to €678. On top of these amounts the authority adds notification and processing costs, shown on the notice.

ZTL fine by number of days
| Days with entries | Within 5 days | Within 60 days | Unpaid, no appeal |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | €58.10 | €83.00 | €166.00 |
| 2 | €116.20 | €166.00 | €332.00 |
| 3 | €174.30 | €249.00 | €498.00 |
| 5 | €290.50 | €415.00 | €830.00 |
Three kinds of offence
The calculator separates three cases. Entering a ZTL without a permit is the usual one. Entering a charging zone without paying, such as Area C, adds the charge for the whole day’s period to the fine. Driving a vehicle of a lower emission class than required, as in Rome’s Fascia Verde or Milan’s Area B, carries a higher fine, and if repeated within two years a licence suspension of 15 to 30 days.
What the calculator does not know
It does not know the notification and processing costs, which differ by authority, nor surcharges for paying after the legal deadlines. It does not say whether the notice is valid: that is what the ZTL fine appeal page is for. And it does not know whether you had a permit: if you did, the problem lies in the gate database and should be reported to the authority.
