Are you not paying parking fees where required? Or are you paying too little? Then you may receive a parking ticket. You will receive a letter at home.

You may also receive a fine. For example, you will receive a fine if you park illegally. You can appeal against the parking ticket or fine.

Approach

How to pay a parking ticket:

  • You will receive a letter from the BsGW.
  • The letter states how much, how, and when you must pay.

Costs

The amount is stated on the ticket and depends on the offense. If no amount is stated, a report has been filed. This report is sent to the public prosecutor. He will make a decision and you will be notified of this.

Description

In some areas, you have to pay to park. This is called parking tax. You pay this tax at parking meters or via a parking app on your mobile phone, for example. What if you don't pay? Or what if you pay too little? Then you may receive a parking ticket. This is an additional charge for the parking tax you have not paid.

A parking ticket is not the same as a fine. You receive a fine for an offense. For example, if you are parked illegally or if you are speeding. You will receive a fine from the Central Judicial Collection Agency (CJIB).

Objections and appeals

If you disagree with the parking ticket, you can lodge an objection. You must do this within 6 weeks. Your objection must clearly state why you disagree with the parking ticket. Include any supporting documents.

Wait until you receive the letter from the BsGW. It will explain how you can lodge an objection. Please also state the assessment number.
