Short-Term Parking Zones in Vienna
There are comprehensive short-term parking zones in 19 districts of Vienna. There the parking time is limited, you have to pay for parking and need a parking ticket (from 1.10 euros per half hour) or a parking sticker issued by the city, but this only applies to residents of the respective district.
Parking in the short-term parking zones is usually free on weekends.
Please check the traffic signs on site carefully.
Parking Ticket Sales
A parking ticket can be purchased at tobacco shops, petrol stations, cigarette vending machines, post offices, ticket machines in all Vienna underground stations as well as at the city's main cash desk and all city cash desks.
Some shops and hotels also sell parking tickets.
Parking Ticket Validation
The purchased parking ticket must be validated by filling out the month, day, hour, minute and year sections and must be stuck inside behind the windscreen in a clearly visible place.
If you mistakenly fill in the parking ticket incorrectly, you must throw it away. Correction is not allowed.
Useful Apps
Mobile phone apps such as Park Now and Parkingplacesearch.at find the next free parking space, show you how to get there using real navigation and inform you in advance about the costs.
In many cases, payment by mobile phone is also possible, for example with the easypark app.
Free Parking
Parking is free of charge outside the short-term parking zones.
Since the short-term parking zones apply during the day, it is possible to park for free during the night from 10:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. and on weekends around the clock. However, be sure to observe the regulations for Saturday parking on the main and commercial streets.
In addition, free parking is possible in the 13th and 21st to 23rd districts.
