The parking rules can vary depending on the place and area. Here are some of the general parking rules: 

• Parking and waiting in a car is generally permitted in the right side of the road, but prohibited on main roads and motorways.  

• You may not park on roads with an unbroken white line down the middle, anywhere within 5 metres (16 feet) of a pedestrian/bicycle crossing or 10 metres (33 feet) from an intersection. You may also not park within 12 metres (40 feet) of a bus stop, where the curb is painted yellow.  

• Parking restrictions with regards to certain times and days are written on signs at parking areas and areas where you may not park. Police may remove illegally-parked cars or hand out a fine on the spot. 

• In Denmark, parking discs are required where time-limited parking is allowed, and most Danes set the ‘clock’ on the parking discs whenever they park as a precaution. 

• Be sure to check whether you are parking in a ‘paid parking’-area. You can read more about the ‘paid parking’-areas in Copenhagen on this website.
