Parking a caravan on a public road

What is it?

If you want to park your caravan, camper van, motorhome, trailer, or folding trailer on a public road, you are generally only allowed to do so for 3 days.

  • It does not cause any inconvenience or danger to road users or people living in the neighborhood.

What to do?

You must apply for the exemption with the municipality. Please include the following information with your application:

  • your name and address
  • the period during which you wish to park
  • Why you might want to park your caravan, camper van, motorhome, trailer, or folding trailer on a public road

How long does it take?

You will be notified within 8 weeks whether your exemption has been granted.
