No-Stopping Zone Costs

A no-stopping zone in Munich costs the official fee for the permit at the Mobility Department (Mobilitaetsreferat) plus sign rental. The fees depend on the duration and scope of the order. Sign rental and possible installation service apply on top.

Official Fees

The Mobility Department (Mobilitaetsreferat) Munich calculates fees based on the duration and scope of the temporary order. For film shoots, events, or moves of up to 3 days, the permit costs range between 26 and 116 EUR.

Factors affecting the fee amount:

• Duration of the closure (1 day, multiple days)
• Scope of the zone (number of parking spaces, length in metres)
• Location of the zone (higher costs within the middle ring)
• Complexity of the application

The current fee schedule is available on the Mobility Department website. Reduced fees apply for extensions or date changes to an existing permit.

Important: The Mobility Department only issues the traffic order. Traffic signs must be organised and paid for separately through a sign rental company.

Sign Costs

No-stopping zone signs must be rented from a construction site safety company. Costs vary depending on provider and rental duration.

Typical sign costs:

• Single sign: 30 to 50 EUR per week
• Installation by a specialist company: 20 to 40 EUR per sign
• Collection after the period ends: usually included in the rental price

For a standard no-stopping zone, you typically need 2 to 4 signs. The number depends on the length of the zone. Longer zones require more signs for proper marking.

Tip: Compare several sign rental companies in Munich. Many companies offer packages including signs and installation, which is often more affordable than booking individual services.

Total Costs

The total costs are made up of several items:

1. Official fee at the Mobility Department (Mobilitaetsreferat) (based on duration and scope)
2. Sign rental from a construction site safety company
3. Installation service (optional, recommended)

Typical total costs for a move:

• Small move (1 day, 2-3 parking spaces): approx. 100 to 150 EUR
• Medium move (1-2 days, 4-6 parking spaces): approx. 150 to 250 EUR
• Large move (2-3 days, 6-8 parking spaces): approx. 250 to 350 EUR

These estimates are approximate values. Actual costs depend on your specific case.

Self-application:

• You submit the application yourself at the Mobility Department

Important note on liability: If you install the signs incorrectly or incompletely, you can be held liable in case of problems. Service providers assume this responsibility.
