Parking in Yerevan
If you’ve got a car, you’re going to have to park it at some point. Here is are some quick tips about how you can park your car and avoid any parking tickets!
Stay within the red dotted lines
Street parking is designated by the red dotted lines so when you have to park your car on the street, make sure it’s between the red dotted lines. If you’re outside the red lines, you can get a ticket.
You’ve got fifteen minutes
If you only need to park for a moment to load your groceries, pick someone up or drop them off, or make a delivery, you’ve got five free minutes of parking.
Prices
After your first fifteen minutes, you have to pay. You can pay for parking a number of different ways and for different lengths of time. If you’re going driving around a lot, consider purchasing the monthly or yearly plan to avoid having to purchase parking every time you need it. The city is divided into A and B zones.
