Residents with permanent address in Józsefváros are eligible to obtain a residential parking permit for their vehicle.

District residential parking permits issued in 2025 are valid until January 31, 2026.

Therefore, starting from December 1, 2025, residents can renew their parking permit for the following year.

New Discounts Now Available:

• A 15% discount applies if you apply for or renew your 2026 parking permit online between December 1 and December 31, 2025.
• A 10% discount applies if you apply for or renew your 2026 parking permit online between December 1 and December 31, 2026. 

Additionally, a new option is available: residents may obtain a discounted district residential parking permit for one vehicle that is operated by their employer (leased or long-term rental) but is in the resident’s exclusive use, provided that no discounted residential parking permit exists for the address at the time of application. This permit can also be obtained online.

Pensioners, district residents with large families, and those owning a second vehicle (per address) can also renew their parking permit online.
As we need to verify the documents required for the discount in the case of pensioners and large families, the approval process may take longer. Thank you for your patience!

A district resident whose health condition, certified by a general practitioner, requires care, as well as any person providing care for a permanently ill or severely disabled relative with a registered address in the district (as certified by a general practitioner), is entitled to a 100% discount on the annual fee for the residential parking permit.
Please note: the discount can only be applied once—either by the person requiring care or by the relative providing care. This permit can only be obtained in person or through an authorized representative.
