Parking and paying Anyone visiting Rotterdam by car should know that payment is by 'chipcard'. Every ticket machine on the streets accepts this form of payment. A separate chipcard is also available. The card has a balance in Euros and can be purchased at various points in the city, such as tobacconists and multi-storey car parks. For people who are unable to ‘chip’, there are always the many multi-storey car parks in the centre of Rotterdam which do accept coins and notes and, in some cases, a credit card with the VISA/Mastercard icon. Furthermore, at several places in the centre and at major attractions, the ticket machines also accept credit cards. For more information please contact the City Inspectorate (‘Stadstoezicht’). Parking for coaches In the centre of Rotterdam special parking places have been arranged for coaches. These parking places are to be found at the following locations: Blaak (1 parking place at the ‘Maritiem Museum’)
