Dubai Announces New Parking Fees and Timings in Key Areas

Paid parking tariffs in Dubai's Zone F areas have recently increased, as announced by Parkin PJSC, the city's largest operator of paid public parking facilities. The updated rates, effective from February 1, 2025, apply to parking slots in areas such as Al Sufouh 2, The Knowledge Village, Dubai Media City, and Dubai Internet City. In addition to the higher fees, the paid parking duration has also been extended. The new parking hours are from 8am to 10pm, a significant change from the previous timing of 8am to 6pm.

The revised parking rates for Zone F are as follows:

30 minutes: Dh2
1 hour: Dh4
2 hours: Dh8
3 hours: Dh12
4 hours: Dh16
5 hours: Dh20
6 hours: Dh24
7 hours: Dh28
24 hours: Dh32

Previously, the fees were:

1 hour: Dh2
2 hours: Dh5
3 hours: Dh8
4 hours: Dh11

This tariff increase comes ahead of the implementation of the Variable Parking Tariff Policy, scheduled for March 2025. Under the new policy, parking fees will be adjusted during peak hours:

Morning peak hours (8am to 10am): Dh6 per hour for premium spaces and Dh4 per hour for regular parking
Evening peak hours (4pm to 8pm): Dh6 per hour for premium spaces and Dh4 per hour for regular parking
During off-peak hours (10am to 4pm and 8pm to 10pm), parking rates will remain unchanged.
Parking will be free from 10pm to 8am and all day on Sundays.

Dubai's parking zones are divided into three categories—commercial, non-commercial, and special areas—and each zone has specific regulations and fees that drivers must be mindful of.
