Parking businesses and employees

For businesses in paid parking zones, there are various special parking products available for their employees, visits and customers.

Subscriptions for businesses and employees

Employees and businesses in a paid parking zone can apply for a subscription with the Parking Service with which they can park in one of the parking garages. Various types of business subscriptions are available:

  • A subscription for 3 days a week (with time restriction) for employees. The 3-day subscription with time restriction is valid on 3 working days previously specified by you (Monday to Friday) from 07:00 until 19:00 o’clock.
  • A subscription for 5 days a week from Monday to Friday, from 07:00 to 19:00 o'clock, for employees and businesses.
  • With the 3-day and 5-day subscriptions it is possible to drive out later. In this case, the card works as a short-term parking card and you can pay the price with your debit card at the parking meter or at the exit terminal near the barrier.
  • A subscription for 7 days a week (without time restriction) for employees and businesses. The subscription without time restriction is valid 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
