Parking

The entire city centre is paid parking. Tariffs and the times at which charges apply are stated on all ticket machines. It is not possible to use coins in Rotterdam’s’ on-street parking meters, payment is  done by bank pass or credit card. You can also pay for parking in the streets via mobile phone. Everyone who has a mobile phone can use this service. However, you will need to register with one of the following providers: Park-line / Easypark, Yellowbrick, SMSParking, ANWB Parkeren, MyOrder or MKB Brandstof. Remember to check the signs in the streets for local options, times and prices.

People with a disabled parking permit are allowed to park in the designated parking spaces. Local rules and regulations may apply.
