What is the congestion charge in London?
In Central London, the city has imposed a congestion charge scheme which is payable daily, for any day that a vehicle moves within the zone between 07:00 and 22:00, except Christmas day (25/12). No charge is payable for vehicles, if they are parked for a full day(s) within the zone.
If you collect your car from within the zone, you will need to pay £18 per day for the congestion charge for both combustion and electric vehicle types. The new Cleaner Vehicle Discount means electric vehicles registered for Auto Pay will pay less: 25% discount for electric cars and 50% discount for electric vans, HGVs and quadricycles. Payments can be made via phone on 0845 9001234 or online at www.cclondon.com.
Note: The City of London assesses a penalty for non-payment, which is billed to Enterprise. In order to staff and process these penalties, Enterprise charges an administrative fee for handling payment of the penalty.
