Apply for a resident parking permit
Apply online
You can apply for a resident parking permit (also known as a resident parking permit) in person or online.
Each resident receives only one resident parking permit. This entitles the resident to park a vehicle that they use permanently or permanently in the corresponding resident parking zone.
Details
Eligible are
- who has their main residence in the respective resident parking zone and
- can prove that they do not have a private parking space in their parking zone and
- is registered as the owner of a motor vehicle (with a gross weight of less than 3.5 t) or
- can prove that he has a motor vehicle for permanent use.
Registering a vehicle at your main residence
Applicants who are the owner of a vehicle with foreign or foreign license plates should note that the vehicle owner is obliged under § 46 FZV to register their vehicle at their main place of residence.
As the Citizens' Service is also the registration authority, a new resident parking permit will only be issued in these cases if the owner also applies to transfer the vehicle to Jena at the same time.
Documents
- Identity document (identity card or passport)
- Registration certificate part I (original)
- If applicable, written confirmation from the vehicle owner that the vehicle has been made available to you for permanent or long-term use - only required if you are not the owner of the vehicle and a vehicle has been made available to you for permanent or long-term use
- if necessary, a written power of attorney - if another person is to make the application on your behalf, please note: online applications must be made in person
