Texelvignet - parking on Texel - parking card
Are you coming to Texel with your car or another vehicle? Paid parking applies in residential areas and at the beaches, so we recommend the Texel parking card: the Texelvignet. You can choose to buy a day ticket, a week ticket or a year ticket. Paid parking applies from Monday to Sunday from 8.00 to 20.00. You can buy your Texelvignet online, at a parking meter, at the town hall or you can pay via a parking app. Do you not yet know which car you will take to Texel? Then wait before buying a Texelvignet, because a license plate change costs money and is not possible in every situation.
There is a maximum parking time at busy locations (blue zones). You do not have to pay to park at these locations. You do need a parking disc here.
Please note: currently there is a problem when purchasing a Texelvignet online. You may receive a notification that your payment has failed or is pending. In most cases your payment was successful. It may take a little longer before you receive an email with confirmation.
