Parkin Company PJSC has announced key updates regarding Dubai’s Variable Parking Tariff Policy, which is set to take effect on April 4, 2025.
Introduced by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the new policy will apply peak and off-peak tariffs across all public parking spaces and a significant portion of developer-managed parking facilities.
Expansion of Premium Parking Zones
Following discussions between Parkin and the RTA, the proportion of Premium Parking, which includes high-demand areas near public transport hubs, has been increased to 40% of Parkin’s public portfolio, up from the previously announced 35%. The remaining 60% will be classified as Standard Parking.
Developer Parking Now Included
Initially, developer-owned parking spaces were expected to be exempt. However, under the updated policy, 35% of developer spaces will now be subject to variable tariffs, mirroring the public parking framework.
MSCP and Grand Event Tariffs
The Multi-Storey Car Park (MSCP) tariff remains unchanged at AED 5 per hour, capped at AED 40 for stays exceeding 8 hours in any 24-hour period.
To manage high vehicle volumes during major events at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), a special AED 25 per hour tariff will apply to 200 designated spaces from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM on event days. Upcoming DWTC events in 2025 include:
GITEX (Oct 13–17)
Beautyworld Middle East (Oct 27–29)
Gulfood Manufacturing (Nov 4–6)
The Big 5 (Nov 24–27)
Automechanika Dubai (Dec 9–11)
