German emission zone stickers - Don't pay over the odds!

Umweltplakette (the green sticker) for German environmental zones.

Be aware of websites charging way over the odds for these stickers.

They are only €6 from Berlin local authority
Online-application environmental zone sticker - Berlin.de
posted to your UK address.

I've ordered and received stickers from the Berilin council source a number of times over the years and have just done so for my current vehicle.

is this just for Berlin or valid in all German Citys?

In Berlin’s low emission zone, vehicles must be marked with a green sticker. Vehicles registered abroad also require a green sticker. The sticker must be attached to the windscreen and facilitates the control of the low emission zone. The stickers are valid in all low emission zones in Germany.

That took 2 minutes to find and paste!

I believe you only need one, then it's valid throughout Germany.

Thanks CAB for your helpful reply

As @CAB says, the one sticker is for all of Germany.

The others I've bought from the Berlin site as they are the cheapest. I've changed cars AGAIN so I need to apply for another.

I was in Munich in December, and totally forgot about this - and I used to live there!
Though in Munich the zone is (was) restricted to only the very centre, and is only active on rare, low air quality days. While I lived there (until 2012), I don’t remember it ever being active.
Still, for the price, better to get one and be sure - especially if you intend to drive into a city.
