Prepared by Radif Partners · How we calculate

Delft divides the city into lettered areas. The National Parking Register lists 9 paid street areas with hours. In 2 of them, around the Paardenmarkt and the Voorstraat in area B, an hour costs €4.50. In the other 7 areas, such as C, E, F and the area around the university (TU), it is €1.00 an hour and paying only starts at 12:00. In the old town you pay on weekdays and Saturday from 10:00 until midnight, on Sunday from 12:00 until midnight. Two hours there cost €9.00. Nearly every area has a maximum day rate: €30.00 in the old town, so eight hours paid by the hour (€31.50) come to slightly more than the maximum. We have not read a Delft parking tax by-law. For the costs of a parking penalty we therefore only show the legal maximum of €82.00.

Parking in Delft by area

Two hourly rates: high in the heart of the old town, low in the areas around it. The gap is large, €3.50 an hour, so it pays to look just outside area B.

Delft supplies its area outlines to the register. With the address search at the top you find the area of an address. In area H paying already stops at eight in the evening, and the maximum day rate there is lower.

Paid hours in the old town

Late to start, late to stop. An early morning in the old town is free, an evening there is not: the meter runs until midnight, Sunday included.

Day rate and penalties

Use the day ticket calculator to see from which hour the maximum applies. For penalties we show the legal maximum of €82.00, as the Almere by-law puts it; we have not read the Delft amount. More on the neighbouring city on parking in The Hague.

Common questions

Tap a question to see the answer.

What is the maximum day rate for parking in Delft?

In the old town the register lists a maximum day rate of €30.00. 9 areas have such a maximum. If you stay all day, you never pay more than that amount per day, even if the hourly rate would add up higher. Check at the meter whether the maximum also applies in your app.

What time does paid parking start in Delft?

In the old town at 10:00, on Sunday at 12:00. In most other areas only at 12:00. That is later than in most cities on this site. If you are in Delft early in the morning, you often still park for free. Signs in the street always take precedence.

How much is a parking fine in Delft?

We did not find a Delft parking tax by-law in the database of local regulations, so we give no Delft amount. By law a municipality may charge at most €82.00 in costs per penalty assessment, plus the unpaid parking tax. The exact amount is printed on the assessment itself.
