Is parking free in Stockholm on Sundays?
What each tax zone charges on Sundays and public holidays.
Short answer
Sunday parking in Stockholm is free in tax zones 3, 4 and 5, but zones 1 and 2 charge on Sundays and public holidays. Zone 1 costs 55 kronor per hour around the clock, and zone 2 costs 31 kronor per hour from 09:00 to 19:00 and 20 kronor per hour at other times. The street sign decides.

- According to the City of Stockholm, zone 1 charges 55 kronor per hour on all days, around the clock.
- The city lists zone 2 on Sundays and public holidays at 31 kronor per hour between 09:00 and 19:00, and 20 kronor per hour at other times.
- Zones 3, 4 and 5 list fees only for weekdays and the day before a Sunday or holiday and are free of charge at other times, according to the city.
Details
A public holiday is treated like a Sunday: the city says both are shown with red numbers on the supplementary sign. For more on fees and rules see our guide to parking and congestion taxes, and for the tolerance on paid time see how many minutes over the time you can park in Stockholm.
