Online Application and Security Information
Your data is safely transferred through a https connection. However use of the form and entering person information, such as account information, in an unsecured environment such as internet cafés, cell phones, or public WIFI is bound to security risks.

Control of Parking Areas
The division ensures surveillance over the entire parking area. All parking areas are controlled at least once a day at random times. Parking area control is conducted by employees of RWTH Aachen.
If you do not possess valid authorization to park, your vehicle will be towed by a company contracted by RWTH Aachen.
Please note:
Place your parking permit in a visible field of your windshield so that the reading devices can capture the data accordingly.
