Parking on Texel

Visiting Texel by car? Then buy a Texel Vignette to park carefree. You can buy this digital parking ticket quickly and simply online via smartphone, tablet or computer. Texel has paid parking in all villages and at the beaches. You pay € 2.50 per hour for a single ticket at the ticket machine (coins not possible). A Texel vignette costs €10 per day, €20 per week (valid for 8 days) or €30 for a year (valid for 365 days).

How it works

Enter your license plate number via www.texelvignet.nl/en , choose the desired parking duration and pay. Now you can park carefree anywhere on Texel. The enforcers will scan your license plate and see for which period you have purchased a Texel Vignette. Handy, isn't it? The vignette is a digital proof of parking, so you do not get a sticker, pass or card. The vignette can be purchased online via www.texelvignet.nl/en and also from the parking meters. You can pay online with credit card. Are you unable to purchase a parking vignette online? Then you can buy a ticket at a parking ticket machine on Texel.

When do you have to pay for parking on Texel?

Paid parking applies in all villages (built-up areas) and at the carparks at the beaches from Monday to Sunday from 08.00 to 20.00, including on public holidays. At some busy points within the centres of Den Burg and, to a limited extent, De Koog, only a parking duration restriction and no paid parking applies. At these spots you may park for a maximum of 2 hours, 1 hour or 30 minutes. The map at the bottom of this page shows where parking duration restrictions apply.

Blue parking disc

At a limited number of locations within the village centers, the parking time is a maximum of 30 minutes to 2 hours. This is indicated by signs and an overview can also be found via this link. Use your blue parking disc to indicate your arrival time.

Disabled parking card

If you are in possession of a European Disabled Parking Card? Then you don't have to purchase a Texelvignette. Please note: in parking lots and in parking spaces with a limited duration, you must use the blue parking disc in addition to your disabled parking card to indicate your arrival time.

Hospitable and sustainable

Texel Municipality aims to ensure that you, as a guest, can move around Texel easily and carefree. That is why the Municipality of Texel invests the parking revenue in improving the road network, good parking facilities and more facilities for cyclists and other forms of sustainable transport.

Car wash

Is your car dirty? In the car wash at garage Rentenaar and at ABS Graaf paint shop, you can choose from various washing programmes for the best result. You can quickly continue exploring the island with a spotless car.

Would you like to discover Texel without a car?

No problem. On Texel, public transport gets you everywhere. This is arranged with the Texelhopper. A regular bus line (line 28) runs between the ferry port and the villages of Den Burg and De Koog. Small busses take you to and from some 130 bus stops all over the island. You can also opt for a day or family ticket. Check www.texelhopper.nl/en

Sustainable alternatives

Texel is pre-eminently a cycling island. There is no less than 145 kilometers of cycling path that takes you past the most beautiful places. You can rent (electric) bicycles at the ferry harbour, in almost all villages and at various holiday parks. There are charging points for e-bikes in more and more places. There are many more fun and sustainable alternatives available. VVV Texel is happy to help you.
