Deadlines

The period of validity of the exemption is one year.

You are welcome to use our digital application process to apply (see link under Links). Alternatively, you can also submit your application by post or e-mail, provided that all the necessary documents are available or have been sent along.

Fees

The fee for an exemption depends, among other things, on its period of validity. Please refer to the overview below for the respective amount of fees.


If the nursing service has up-to-date proof of membership in a welfare association, the approvals are free of charge in certain cases in accordance with the Ordinance on the Freedom from Administrative Fees (Fee Freedom Ordinance - GebFreiVO).




Please note that in the event of a rejection, a fee of 75% will also be incurred. The basis for this is the Administrative Costs Act (VwKostG) in conjunction with the scale of charges for road traffic measures (GebOSt). With the application there is no legal entitlement to the granting of a special permit.




Subsequent withdrawal of an application is also subject to a fee. In this case, a fee of 50% of the actual fee for granting the exemption applies.

Legal basis

Section 46 of the Road Traffic Act http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/stvo_2013/__46.html

If you run a nursing service, are a midwife or a doctor, you can apply for a parking permit under certain conditions.
This can entitle you, for example, to parking free of charge in restricted parking areas, in resident parking zones or in parking space management zones (parking spaces with parking meters or parking ticket machines). The exemption applies in particular to the care, treatment and pre- and post-care of patients on site.
When using the exemption, other people in particular must not be endangered or hindered.
