Official fees

- Daily fee: 5 to 10 EUR per day
- Per-metre fee: 1 to 2 EUR per metre
Example calculation for 3 Tage, 20 metres:
- Authorisation fee: approx. 35 EUR
- Daily fee: 3 × 7,50 EUR = 22,50 EUR
- Per-metre fee: 20 × 1,50 EUR = 30 EUR
- Total official fees: approx. 87,50 EUR
The fees vary depending on the extent of the restriction and the use of the road or pavement.
Important: The Straßenverkehrsbehörde only issues the traffic-law order. You must rent the traffic signs separately.
