Prepared by Radif Partners · How we calculate
The Hague (Den Haag) has 88 paid street zones in the National Parking Register. Nearly everywhere the same hourly rate of €2.75 applies: in 74 zones. The shopping streets in the centre and the Scheveningen seafront are the expensive ones, at €7.15 an hour. In Centrum - Kernwinkelstraten you pay on weekdays from 09:00 until midnight, at weekends until 2 am and on Sunday from 13:00. Two hours of shopping there cost €14.30. The register also lists 6 zones with a rising rate, where every minute costs more the longer you stay, which makes a long stay very expensive. There is one park-and-ride site by the beach. We found no Hague by-law stating the penalty amount; by law the costs are capped at €82.00.

Beach, park and ride and fines
For a day at the beach, the park-and-ride site at Scheveningen is worth a look; see park and ride by city. The costs of a parking penalty cannot exceed €82.00 in 2026, the legal maximum stated among others in the Almere by-law. We have not read The Hague’s own amount. More under parking penalty. If you park in the same district often, ask the municipality whether a permit or visitor scheme is possible.
