Car Parks and Parking Charges

Business Exemption Permit Cost Increases - 1 June 2012

The cost of Business Exemption Permits will increase for all zones from 1 June 2012. The new charges are as follows:

£500 for a 12 month permit;

£260 for a 6 month permit; and

£135 for a 3 month permit.

Any permit applications received on or after 1 June 2012 will be sold at the new increased prices. This will also apply to any permit renewal applications. Permits renewals can only be made at the earliest 20 days prior the expiry date of the permit.

There is now an even more convenient way to pay for your parking in Aberdeen. Now you can pay to park in Aberdeen City Council car parks using a new PayByPhone service giving you the option to pay for parking on your mobile phone, rather than having to find the right change for a Pay and Display machine.

Please see the table below to view the various council car parking charges for parking in Aberdeen City:
