Hoping somebody here can help as I'm stuck in a mind field of info that does always make sense

have a trip planned for end of July leaving home and stopping in Reims > Offenburg > Konstanz > Munich > Torina > Monza > Interlaken > Chamonix > Reims > Home

I know we need a Swiss and Austrian Vignette which we'll ghet online in the next few weeks, we have the Emovis Toll Tag from the french autoroutes

we know Reims requires a cleaner air sticker

but the rest not sure on as the infomation can be read differently as in yes you need it no you dont

we're only stopping/going to the towns/cities above

any help will be gratefully accepted

You need stickets for France (Crit D'aire) and Germany umweltplakette)
Cost mess than a tenner each, you need to scan your V5 and then order it on line. Mine both arrived very quickly.
So you don't get scammed I would follow the link from RAC;

there is a lot of scammer looking websites

I have seen one offering the Swiss Vignette for £60 compared to the £35 it actually costs

We recently went to italy and croatia via austria and i got the vignette at the services prior to the border, was very simple and probably easier than ordering online.

How long have you needed one for Switzerland? I already had the German and French ones on my car, but I visited Zurich in October 2019 and didn't have one then...

Edit: According to the RAC links helpfully posted above, it only came in on 15th January 2020 and only applies to Geneva. And if you already have a French Crit'Air sticker, then that is valid so you don't need a Swiss one.

Edit 2: Sadly the same is not true of Austria - neither French nor German stickers are valid there.

I used Green Wones for both the German and French stickers

Thier phone app is pretty good too, you give it your car details and it'll show on a map where you can't go.
