Change resident parking permit
Parkausweis für Bewohner ändern
Machine translation of the German page, 2026-09-15. The German original is binding.
You can have your currently valid Bewohnerparkausweis (resident parking permit) changed,
• because of a new vehicle registration plate number
• because of a change of the registered keeper of the vehicle
• or if you change your place of residence and move to a different parking zone (this is not yet possible online)
The period of validity of your resident parking permit does not change.
Process
1. Submit an application to change your resident parking permit. You can do this online, alternatively in writing by post, or in exceptional cases in person at the district Bürgerämter (citizens' offices) of the parking zone.
2. Pay the fee directly as part of the online application. If you submit the application in writing, you will receive a Gebührenbescheid (fee notice) with a request for payment.
3. The authority will review your application. You will then receive the parking permit by post.
