** You went to get change to buy a parking ticket from the parking metre;
** You did not return to your car in time. An appointment took longer than expected or you got lost.

As of 1 October 2009 the ‘Wet dwangsom en beroep bij niet tijdig beslissen’ (Failure to give timely decisions act) is in effect. The law states that a municipality has to take a decision on a permit application or appeal on time. If this does not happen, the municipality may face a financial penalty.

How do I arrange it / What do I need to do? :
You must submit your appeal within 6 weeks of the date stated on the fine.
** If you live in the Municipality of The Hague, you can submit your appeal by filling out the digital appeal form ‘Bezwaarschrift naheffingsaanslag parkeerbelastingen’. You will need a DigiD to do this. Please note : it can take a few days before the issued parking ticket appears in the system. When you fill out the digital form, you could get the following message: ‘Bon niet in systeem, probeert u het later nog eens.’ (‘Ticket not in system, please try later.’)
** If you do not have a DigiD or you do not live in the Municipality of The Hague, then you can send your appeal to the Municipal Parking Division by post.
