Verona ZTL: Booking, Hours and Rules for Drivers

By Josep Mampel Marques, updated

Verona's historic centre is a ZTL (called ZTL Città Antica) enforced by electronic gates, and most drivers without a permit are not simply allowed in at set hours: according to SicurAUTO, since 28 October 2024 access has to be booked in advance through the Tap&Park app or the city's portal, with a maximum of 4 entries a month. Hotel guests, two-wheelers and a few other categories enter without booking. ZTL Map does not cover Verona yet, so this page gives the rules as reported and tells you where to confirm them.

Because the system is new and our sources disagree on the details, the safest plan for a visit by car is the simplest one: park outside, or ask your hotel what it needs from you.

What the ZTL covers

SicurAUTO describes the zone as the inner bend of the Adige river between the Ponte Scaligero (Castelvecchio) and the Ponte Aleardi, including Riva San Lorenzo. Streets named as part of the perimeter include via Roma, piazza Brà, via Daniele Manin and corso Castelvecchio. The same article says it dates from 1997 and has been watched by electronic gates since 2005. It lists gates on lungadige Rubele, via Leoni, via Malenza, ponte Garibaldi, lungadige Panvinio, riva San Lorenzo, via Cantore, via Dogana, via Fratta, via Nizza and piazzetta Municipio.

We have no open boundary data for Verona, so the map on the home page does not include it. Look at the signs at each gate: a ZTL gate is marked by the usual round sign, described in how to recognise a ZTL sign and camera.

Booking and hours as reported

DayBooked access window reported by SicurAUTO
Monday to Friday10:00 to 18:00 (leave by 18:00), and 20:00 to 23:00 (leave by 24:00)
Saturday, Sunday and public holidays10:00 to 13:30 (leave by 13:30)

The same article says a booking is made on the Tap&Park app or the dedicated portal, that the limit is 4 entries a month per plate, and that an unbooked plate is treated as unauthorised. Other sources we found give different time bands: Fleet Magazine, for example, lists weekday windows of 10:00 to 13:30 and 16:00 to 18:00. We could not read the Comune di Verona's own page, so we do not know which is current. When sources disagree we use the most restrictive reading, which here means: do not enter without a booking and do not stay past the end of your window.

Note that the 4 entries limit is described in the press for residents of Verona and its province in some reports and for all booked plates in others. We could not settle this, so do not assume that a foreign visitor can book freely.

Who can enter without booking

AMT3, the company that runs Verona's mobility services, lists on its ZTL page (dated 25 August 2025) the categories that can enter at any hour:

SicurAUTO adds residents and people living in the zone with a permit, and says that tourist rentals (holiday flats) are excluded from the hotel exemption. Autovia says the same. If you are staying in a holiday flat inside the ZTL, ask the host in writing how your plate can be authorised, and do not assume it can.

Hotel guests: what to do

If your hotel is inside the ZTL, send the plate to the hotel as soon as you have the car, ideally before you arrive. The registration is made by the hotel, not by you. For how this works in other cities and the deadlines, see hotel inside the ZTL. Where the hotel cannot register you, park outside and walk.

Fines

SicurAUTO lists these amounts for Verona: 98.50 EUR when the notice is delivered to you in person, 73.60 EUR if you pay within 5 days of notification, and after 60 days an increase from 82.00 EUR to 165 EUR. It also says that in an emergency you can email the Polizia Municipale's gate control office within 72 hours of the entry. These are press figures that we could not match against an official tariff, so read the amount on your notice. For a rental car, the notice goes through the rental company first: see ZTL fines with a rental car.

Where to park instead

SicurAUTO quotes about 1 EUR an hour at Parcheggio Centro without an official source, so check the rate on the operator's site. AMT3 says blue-line parking inside the ZTL costs 1.00 EUR per 30 minutes or 2.00 EUR an hour, but the access rules above still apply.

Frequently asked questions

Can I drive into Verona's centre with a rental car?

Only with a booked entry, or as a hotel guest whose plate the hotel has registered. A rental car is treated like any other plate. The easier option is to park outside the zone.

Is the Verona ZTL active on Sundays?

According to SicurAUTO, access on Sundays and holidays is possible only in a booked window from 10:00 to 13:30. Outside it the gates will read the plate as unauthorised. Hotel guests with a registered plate are the exception.

Does ZTL Map show Verona?

Not yet. We only publish boundaries that we can trace to an open source, and we have not found one for Verona. Read the signs at the gate and ask your hotel. See is the ZTL active now? for how to read them.
