Dubai might see an increase in parking fees in 2026, according to the city’s parking company CEO. The company has sent a request to the Road and Transport Authority (RTA) to change the current parking tariffs and the seasonal card pricing system. If the RTA agrees, drivers in Dubai will face higher fees for parking in various city areas.
Reasons for the Proposed Fee Increase
This potential change aims to better manage parking space availability and city traffic flow. The parking company believes that adjusting prices could encourage people to use parking spaces more efficiently and reduce congestion.
Impact on Residents and Visitors
Many Dubai residents and visitors use the city’s paid parking systems extensively. A rise in parking fees could affect:
- Daily commuters
- Shoppers
- Tourists who park their vehicles in different city zones
Official Status and Next Steps
The parking company CEO emphasized that the proposed changes are not yet final. They must first get approval from the RTA before any new fees take effect. The company is committed to providing affordable and convenient parking options while balancing city needs.
Advice for Drivers
For now, Dubai drivers are advised to keep an eye on official announcements regarding parking fees and plan their budgets accordingly. The city continues to develop policies to improve transportation and urban living standards.
