Can I pay ULEZ a week later?

If you do need to pay, charging days run from midnight to midnight, every day of the year (except Christmas Day). You can pay by midnight on the third day following the journey or up to 90 days in advance.


What happens if I refuse to pay ULEZ?

An Order for Recovery means TfL will register that outstanding ULEZ charge as unpaid debt with the Traffic Enforcement Centre and will also mean your original charge will increase too.

Do I pay ULEZ if my car is parked?

If I don't pay the ULEZ charge, will I receive a penalty fine? Yes, TfL uses Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras to detect entry to the zone.

What happens if you forget to pay ULEZ first time?

Failing to pay on time will issue a fixed Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) to the registered keeper of the vehicle.
