Berlin Drafts Multi-Zone Resident Parking Permits With Higher Fees

The Senate plans to unveil a concept this year that links permits and paid zones to proven need.

Overview

  • Transport Senator Ute Bonde said residents could apply for permits covering additional zones if they demonstrate recurring parking needs at specific destinations.
  • She signaled a likely annual price of about €80–€120 for permits, a sharp increase from the current €10.20, with the final level dependent on the overall concept.
  • At present, each car can hold only one resident permit for a single zone and drivers must buy tickets elsewhere, a rule the draft would relax in defined cases.
  • Bonde supports expanding paid parking only where there is measurable parking pressure and rejects a blanket citywide rollout, citing little demand in outer districts.
  • The comprehensive proposal will be coordinated among governing parliamentary groups and presented within 2025, with no final policy or implementation date yet confirmed.
