What do you need to know

You need a parking permit for:

• Parking a camping equipment, such as a caravan, camper or trailer, if you want to park for more than 3 days

An exemption is only required if you park in an area where a parking ban applies. No parking permit is required to load and unload a moving van.

• Parking in verges, parks and flowerbeds is prohibited
• For an exemption to drive on the HOV bus lane, permission must be requested from the province

• If you want to park for more than 3 days, you can request a parking exemption

• If your application shows that a temporary traffic measure is needed, such as a traffic plan (diversion, signs), the municipality will contact you within 2 working days. This application takes a maximum of 4 weeks
• Add a clear situational sketch. For example, an image from Google Maps of the top view. You then draw the vehicle with the dimensions
• A document in which you describe the work and information about the vehicle (type, number of axles and weight, etc.) or other useful information
