Starting January 1, 2025, residents of Bucharest’s Sector 4 face a new reality: an annual fee of 540 lei for car owners who do not have a private parking space. This measure, approved by the Local Council, has sparked heated debates and generated diverse reactions within the community. The fee came into effect on January 1, 2025, affecting approximately 115,000 vehicles.

The smart alternative: Certifying your yard parking space

For Sector 4 residents who have space in their own yards, legally certifying their parking space is an advantageous alternative to paying the annual fee. This procedure involves obtaining a parking space attestation certificate, a document that confirms the legality and existence of the private parking space, thus providing exemption from the imposed annual fee.

Benefits of certifying your parking space

Long-term savings

A one-time investment in cadastral survey and registration eliminates the need to pay the annual parking fee.

Comfort and safety

Parking in your own yard provides comfort and safety, eliminating the stress of searching for street parking.

Property value increase

A legally certified parking space increases the value of the property, representing an advantage in the event of a future sale.

Legal compliance

Certifying the parking space ensures compliance with local regulations, avoiding potential penalties.

According to legal provisions, the parking space attestation certificate can be issued exclusively in the following situations:

a) Parking spaces have been arranged within a compound, without reducing the existing green spaces on the plot below the minimum required percentage, in accordance with the provisions of the urban subzone it belongs to, and the plot has appropriately sized car access.

b) Parking spaces have been executed based on a building permit, and the parking spaces are included in the site plan approved for unchanged status, an annex to the Building Permit, but they have not been registered with this designation.

Considering the complexity of the required documentation and the importance of complying with legal regulations, we recommend that you collaborate with an authorized cadastral expert who can provide you with consultancy and prepare the necessary documentation correctly and efficiently, taking into account your specific situation.

DTG is at your disposal to guide you through this process, offering complete cadastral and topographic services.
