Reserving parking in Knokke-Heist
How to apply
Apply for a permit to occupy the public road using the municipality’s online form (Eaglebe); applications by phone, fax or e-mail are not accepted. You only receive the permit after paying through Eaglebe. The municipality can place the no-parking signs; you provide any other signage yourself.
| When to apply | At least 5 working days in advance for an occupation of 14 days or less (at least 15 working days for more than 14 days). Payment at least 48 hours before the start date, otherwise the application is refused. Changes must be reported in writing at least 8 days in advance. |
| Cost | Temporary occupation per m² per day: red zone €3.00, orange zone €2.50, green zone €2.00, rest of the municipality €1.50 (1 unit = 12 m² or 1 parking space). No-parking signs placed by the municipality: minimum €100.00 (at least 2 signs); placement including 1 day €50.00 per sign; each extra day €6.00 per sign. Street closure: an extra €75.00 (up to 4 hours) or €150.00 per day. Every started m²/day counts in full; no refund if unused. If you move on the same day within the municipality (old and new address), you are not charged twice. |
| Who places the signs? | The city |
| Limits and furniture lift | 14-day threshold (longer = longer notice period, and the municipality then does not place traffic signs). Ask the municipality about the maximum length and the rules for a furniture lift. Occupation without a permit or beyond the permitted time/area: 50% extra. |
| Contact | Municipality of Knokke-Heist, Public domain occupation for building works/moves – [email protected] – 050 63 08 30 |
You always apply to the municipality yourself, not the mover: then mention the length you have reserved in your message.

They send it within 5 hours (same hours). You accept or decline it; if it does not suit you, you can ask once for another mover.
- 5You deal directly with the mover
Quote accepted: you receive their contact details and they receive yours. You agree and pay directly with them, then you leave a review after the move.
Before you move
- Parking permit: reserve the space with the municipality, at least 5 working days ahead. See how it works
- Furniture lift: from the 2nd floor without a lift, it often saves a lot of time.
- Register your address with your new municipality within 8 working days; a local police officer will visit to confirm.
- Dates: the end of the month and summer are busy. Book 4 to 6 weeks ahead.
