Municipality of Valkenswaard: applying for a parking permit

The municipality of Valkenswaard considers it important that residents and businesses in the area have sufficient parking space.
That is why there are so-called ‘permit holder zones’. In these areas, parking is only allowed if you have applied for a permit.

In Valkenswaard, there are three types of permits that residents living in a permit holder zone may encounter:

Resident parking permit
Visitor parking scheme
Temporary permit – for when you are moving house or carrying out renovations

Online request

You may apply for a resident parking permit if you meet certain conditions. In short, this means:

Registration

The applicant is registered as a resident of the municipality of Valkenswaard at an address within the permit holder zone; or
The applicant lives in a care facility within the permit holder zone and is registered with a correspondence address elsewhere (supporting documents are required).

License plate

The vehicle’s license plate is registered in the name of the resident applying for the parking permit; or
If it is a lease vehicle, a copy of the lease contract must show that the license plate is registered to the resident; or
If it is a company vehicle, proof must be provided that the resident is the rightful driver.

Would you like to know more about the conditions? You can find them in the Parking Permit Implementation Decree 2025.
