A few short questions. Nothing is sent until you check and confirm.

What does the Colombes reservation form require?

The council's printable form goes to its Public Domain Management Service and must be returned dated and signed at the latest fifteen days before the work. It can be sent by e-mail, by fax or by post, and the form adds that the town is not responsible for the time a letter takes to arrive. A request that is incomplete or late is not considered.

A private person attaches proof of identity and a firm attaches its company registration extract. The form also asks for the number of vehicles and the length of each in metres. Colombes had 91,053 residents in INSEE's 2023 figures and lies in Hauts-de-Seine; duty and VAT on the belongings are covered on the France customs page.

What does a Colombes reservation cost?

The form prints a road-use charge of 41 euros per vehicle and per day. Its conditions tie that figure to a municipal decision of 1 April 2019 and say the flat 41 euros is applied to private individuals moving in or out of Colombes.

Where the bay is in a paid-parking zone, a second charge is added: five times the first-hour rate of 1.40 euros, so 7 euros a bay, passed to the operator of the paid parking. The Treasury sends the payment notice afterwards. Cancelling less than 48 hours ahead leaves the charge due, cancelling between three and seven days ahead costs a 10 euro penalty, and cancelling earlier than that costs nothing.

What does the Colombes form rule out, and who fits the panels?

It covers only existing regulated bays. Delivery bays, disabled-driver bays and no-parking zones may not be reserved, and the authorisation does not allow a furniture lift. A more complex layout needs a traffic order, for which the form gives a delay of three weeks and a telephone number to call.

Colombes road department places the regulatory panels 48 hours before the date, at the bays named on the authorisation, so the applicant does not put up signs. If a car stays in a reserved bay, the form tells the applicant to call the municipal police or the police station to have it removed.

How much of Colombes is in the low-emission zone?

Only part. The Métropole du Grand Paris list, consulted on 2 November 2026, shows Colombes as partly included and does not say which streets, so give the exact address when you check. The guide to the Paris suburbs explains how.

Issy-les-Moulineaux, by contrast, offers a free reservation for two places, so the price per vehicle here is Colombes's own.

For the sticker a lorry needs inside the zone, see the guide to Crit'Air stickers and lorry rules.

Quick answers on Colombes

How far ahead must the Colombes form arrive?

At the latest fifteen days before the date of the work, according to the council's printable form.

A traffic order for a complex layout is quoted at three weeks.

Can a furniture lift be used under the standard Colombes form?

No.

The form says the authorisation does not allow one, so a move that needs a lift has to go through the traffic-order route.

What does the Colombes form charge?

41 euros per vehicle and per day, flat for a private person moving in or out of the town, plus 7 euros a bay in a paid-parking zone.
