◆1 source
Amsterdam will raise residential parking permit fees from next year in the city centre, West, Zuid, Oost and Slotervaart, with increases varying by area. In the centre, most permits will rise by €15 per month to €857 per year, up from €677. In most other areas within the ring, the increase will be €12.50 per month, bringing permits to €550 per year. Fees in the Prinses Irenebuurt will rise to €520 per year, while those in Buitenveldert, De Kolenkit and other affected areas will double from €120 to €240 per year. Weesp’s fee will increase by €2.20 per month, while the rate in Amstelglorie will fall by €2.95 per month.
The remaining areas of Nieuw-West, Zuidoost and Noord are due to receive increases in 2029, although the amounts have not yet been decided. The municipality will also reduce the visitor parking discount in most areas from 65% to 40%, lower the discount for scratch-card permits to 40%, and raise the minimum age for such permits to 67. The changes were announced by alderman Elise Moeskops, who said they were intended to address pressure on public space and support the municipal budget.
