Parking system in Szeged

The city is divided into four zones (green, yellow, blue, and purple), which are indicated by supplementary signs on the traffic sign indicating the parking zone. You can purchase a parking permit at the parking meter located in the respective zone, which also indicates the color of the zone, or via mobile phone.
The minimum parking time is 15 minutes, and the maximum parking time is 4 hours in the green zone, and 6 hours in the yellow, blue, and purple zones when using a parking ticket (excluding daily tickets).
Please display the ticket provided by the parking machine on the windscreen of the vehicle in a clearly visible and verifiable manner.
Parking entitlements:
If the driver of the vehicle parks without a parking ticket, permit, or disabled parking permit, or if they improperly display the ticket, permit, or disabled parking permit, they commit an offense and are obliged to pay a fine. Unauthorized parking is determined by the inspectors of the operator. In all cases, photographic evidence is taken during inspections, and if the vehicle does not have parking entitlement, our inspectors issue a payment request. The photographic evidence is stored in the operator’s parking system and is used as evidence in case of disputes.
Parking with parking machine
Parking entitlement can be purchased through the touchscreen display of the parking meter in a few simple steps.
– In cash: You can only pay with coins (HUF: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200; EUR: 50 eurocents, 1, 2).

If the driver of the vehicle is parked without a parking ticket or disability card, or with a ticket or disability card issued inappropriately placed, she/he commits an irregularity and is obliged to pay a surcharge. Irregular parking is determined by the operator’s inspectors. A check will be taken of the inspections in all cases, and if the vehicle does not have the right to park, a payment order will be issued. The images are archived by the operator and used as evidence in case of litigation.
