You have to pay it. You need a vehicle under 10 years old to be exempt. Or you can buy a 50 year old classic two stroke that spews out stinky smoke and pollutes. Cause these are also exempt! !

I think a 21 yr old scooter fits the exemption status.

Your bike needs to be Euro 3 compliant. Euro 3 levels become standard on bikes in 2007.
Or your bike must be 40 years old to be exempt.

Emigrate to Italy, here you can easily pollute except in big cities.

Go to france, buy a scooter, bring it back.

You are now exempt from all fees and fines and penalties.
