Applying for a resident parking permit
If you want to apply for a resident parking permit, you must meet a few requirements. First, an official report in the affected area is required. A valid class A, A1, A2 or B driving license is also required. You also need your own vehicle, although cars up to 3.5 t or motorcycles over 50 cm³ are permitted. People with a parking space on private property do not receive a permit, and residents of new buildings who...1990were built are also excluded from the regulation.
The documents required for the application include, among others:
- Personaldokument
- Führerschein
- Fahrzeugschein
- ggf. Vollmacht
- Carsharing-Bestätigung
- Halterbestätigung bei Firmen- oder Privatfahrzeug
It is particularly important that applicants must be the owner of a vehicle or prove that they will use the vehicle permanently. If you do not own the vehicle, written confirmation from the owner is required. However, the owner confirmation is only recognized by certain relatives, such as spouses, parents or grandparents. A special form is required for company vehicles.
Parking situation for residents and visitors
In Dresden, the resident parking permit does not entitle you to a fixed parking space. Only residents are allowed to park for free in the approved zone during the approved period, which is particularly important in heavily frequented residential areas. Other user groups, such as business owners, employees or visitors, are not entitled to a resident parking permit. So it remains exciting to see how the parking situation in Neustadt and the surrounding area will develop.
