PARKING IN BELGRADE

The parking order in Belgrade, as in other big cities, presumes somewhat stricter regulations in the immediate city zone, so-called two-circle (denoting round tram no.2 line).
Within the city zone there are 3 established parking zones (green, yellow and red) with time-limited parking order. In Green zone parking is limited to 3 hours (20 dinars per hour), in yellow zone parking to 2 hours (25 dinars per hour), and in red zone parking to 1 hour (35 dinars). Zones are marked by visible traffic sign, as well as by lines of corresponding colour at the very car park. Upon the expiration of the prescribed time, a driver is obliged to leave the parking space (to park elsewhere).
The method of payment implies parking tickets (which can be bought at the newsagent’s), parking meters, chip cards and SMS of both mobile networks.

SMS payment method involves entering the number plate in the following format: BG420421 (with no spaces) and sending SMS to desired number, i.e 9111 (red zone), 9112 (yellow zone) or 9113 (green zone). Soon upon sending an SMS you receive the SMS confirming that the parking for the vehicle of the number plates entered has been covered. A few minutes before the expiration of the parking time, you will receive an SMS informing you that your parking time expires soon.
