When I used to drive all across Europe for a living, I used to work under the assumption that if a foreign authority goes to the effort of actually sending you a fine, you sort of have to pay it. I got plenty of physical parking tickets that I ignored and that never came to anything but I didn't want to deal with headache of potentially getting pulled over/hassled next time I was driving in that country so paid any fines that actually came through my door. That was quite a while ago now and probably not a great idea at the time though!

I do not know if Johnson's 'oven ready deal' included reciprocal arrangements for FPNs, fixed penalty notices.
I think it used to be that the DVLA could pass EU-issued fpns onto their debt collectors. -
I think they can chase you for it in the UK. Also they may remember it at passport control when you go there in the future

I’ve received two fines from Comune di Bergamo for a highway violation in April 2022. I paid a bunch of fines from this trip last year (no, it wasn’t a Gumball Rally).
E90 if paid within five days; E114 for next 60 days; increases by E197 if not paid within 60 days. All durations are ‘from notification’.
So, what happens if I don’t pay?
