Bratislava Parking Availability and Regulations

In the centre, in most streets during the day (until 4 p.m.) you are required to purchase and mark one-hour parking cards at a very low price of SKK 10 (EUR 0.33) per hour. Parking cards, which require you to mark the time, are sold in the streets by vendors in yellow vests and also at some newsstands.

A lot of places in the centre are private (marked with a white cross on the ground, a blue P-Reserve traffic sign and sometimes protected with a metal column).

Towing

Cars in Bratislava can be towed if they obstruct traffic and the driver can not be contacted. Cars are towed to the Black Forrest area in the Vlcie Hrdlo district. To retrieve a towed car you must contact the police (phone number 159 for the city police, 02/45643817 for the towed cars registry) and pay a hefty fine and retrieval fee. To check online, whether your car has been towed, follow this link and enter your licence plate number without any spaces in the box. Cars can be retrieved between 7:30 a.m. and 10 p.m.

Immobilisers

These are used for other parking violations and contain a contact telephone number (you may contact the city police at 159).

Guarded Secure Paid Parking

Fees for guarded parking start at about SKK 20 (EUR 0.66) per hour and go all the way up to SKK 50 (EUR 1.65) per hour. Fees may vary by length of stay and day of the week.
