Instructions for Obtaining a Student Parking Permit in Dubai
In a move to ease the daily commute for students and staff in Dubai, the city's official public parking operator, Parkin, has introduced a parking subscription tailored for university and college attendees.
For just Dh100 per month, students and staff can gain authorized access to paid parking zones situated close to their educational institutions. This subscription offers an affordable alternative to hourly parking rates, which can vary significantly by area and time.
The subscription covers parking in Parkin-managed zones across various public parking areas throughout the city, including high-demand and densely populated areas near public transport infrastructure. Specific zones mentioned include new paid zones like Al Khail Gate.
The permit works in both roadside and plot parking spaces within Zones A, B, C, and D. For those seeking access to specific parking areas, Parkin also offers a "plot-only" subscription, granting access to zones marked as B and D.
To apply for the parking subscription, applicants will need to verify their status as students or staff at a university or college in Dubai, though the exact documentation required is not detailed in the provided information. Applicants will need Emirates ID and a valid UAE driving license.
The subscription can be purchased for one, three, six, or twelve months, and can be obtained online through the Parkin website (www.parkin.ae) or by downloading the Parkin app. After submitting the application and uploading the required documents, applicants will receive confirmation and activation of their subscription if approved.
It's important to note that only one vehicle can be linked to the subscription, and parking spots must be within a 500-metre radius of the campus. The subscription allows unlimited daily parking in designated areas near campuses.
For non-students and non-staff motorists, Parkin offers parking subscriptions starting from Dh500 per month. As of May, Parkin subscription services are now available in neighbourhoods such as Karama, Al Qusais, and Al Kifaf (Zones W and WP). Parkin's subscription services are now available across all areas it manages, including high-density residential areas like Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai Hills, and Wasl Real Estate Communities.
This new parking subscription aims to help reduce daily parking costs for students and staff in Dubai, making their daily commute more affordable and convenient. For more information, visit the Parkin website or download the Parkin app today.
