Parking Zones
Garages are certainly the safest option, but maybe you do feel like parking on the open. If this means parking in the city center, then you will need to know about parking zones. A good part of Belgrade is covered in parking zones. There are 3 of them and payment is made for each full or incomplete hour.
1st Red zone – maximum 1 hour
2nd Yellow zone – maximum of 2 hours
3rd Green zone – maximum of 3 hours
All 3 zones are marked with signs as well as markings on the very tarmac the parking spot is on. All correspond to the colour of the zone. Parking is payable in all three zones on weekdays from 07.00-21.00 and Saturdays between 07.00 and 14.00. Once the allowed time has expired, the driver must move his or her vehicle. A parking warden will leave a ticket under the windscreen wipers if you should fail to do so.
Payment
Parking tickets – these are purchased at kiosks and other points of sale. The time of arrival should be written on the ticket and it should be displayed on the inside of the windscreen.
Parking ticket machines (only in the red zone) – machines selling parking tickets take coins and electronic parking cards
Mobile phone – by sending an SMS containing the registration number of the vehicle (for example BG123456, without spaces) to 9111, 9112 or 9113 (depending on the zone), from any mobile network. Confirmation of payment by SMS will arrive in the form of a return SMS to the users mobile, detailing the parking service they have paid for. The user must keep this SMS as proof that they have paid for parking in the event that they are erroneously issued a fine. Should the user not receive a return message confirming payment for parking within two minutes, SMS payment for parking has failed and they will not be charged for the service. The user may obtain information about the status of currently paid parking in a zone by sending an SMS with a “?” in the text to the number for that zone. A reminder of the expiry of the parking period will arrive five to 10 minutes before expiry in the form of an SMS message sent to the user’s mobile phone. The user may extend the parking period for an additional hour by sending an SMS message containing the same registration number or just a “*” to the same parking zone number. Once the maximum parking time allowed has expired, the user may not pay for parking by SMS for the next 15 minutes.
Other Parking Areas
Parking areas outside the three central zones, which are marked by the usual traffic signs, can be used for an unlimited time period and are paid for on an hourly or daily basis between 7.00 and 21.00 on work days and on Saturdays from 7.00 to 14.00.
