Important information regarding the use of local public transport

Please note that the entrance tickets to Messe München´s events which take place from 1 January 2011 onwards no longer entitle holders to free use of local public transport. Messe München´s visitors and exhibitors who use local public transport to get to the events must now buy a travel ticket, at their own expense.

Emissions sticker required in the city centre

In 2008, the regional capital Munich implemented a low emission zone. You will need an environmental badge in order to drive on the roads within the Mittlerer Ring (inner city roads).

EXPO REAL is located outside of the low emission zone. However, if your hotel is located within the Mittlerer Ring you will require a yellow or green sticker. Vehicles with a red sticker are not allowed to drive into the centre of Munich.

The following streets are part of the Mittlerer Ring (from the north in a clockwise direction): Georg-Brauchle-Ring, Petuelring, Schenkendorfstrasse, Isarring, Richard-Strauss-Strasse, Leuchtenbergring, Innsbrucker  Ring, Chiemgaustrasse, Tegernseer Landstrasse, Candidstrasse, Brudermühlstrasse, Heckenstallerstrasse, Garmischer Strasse, Trappentreustrasse, Landshuter Allee.

The emissions stickers are obligatory for low emission zones in Germany also for foreigners!
 
The restriction applies to ALL vehicles from within Germany as well as from foreign countries. The emissions sticker can be ordered directly from the German TÜV or DEKRA or online:
 
Order for vehicles registered in foreign countries.
 
Order for vehicles registered in Germany.

Please note that this is not a Messe München service and therefore we are unable to answer any questions in connection with this.
