How quickly do you receive a fine for unpaid parking?
GKU "AMPP" notifies all car owners that the effect of Part 1.3 of Article 32.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (on payment of half the amount of the administrative fine) DOES NOT APPLY to fines imposed for committing offenses provided for in Part 2 of Article 8.14 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Moscow ("Non-payment for placement of a vehicle in a paid city parking lot"), and therefore such fines must be paid in full.
The possibility of paying half the amount of an administrative fine is provided only when paying a fine imposed for committing certain offenses provided for in Chapter 12 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
The deadline for paying an administrative fine is sixty days from the date the decision to impose an administrative fine comes into force. Based on clause 1 of Article 30.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, a complaint against a resolution in a case of an administrative offense can be filed within ten days from the date of delivery or receipt of a copy of the resolution.

For drivers about fines for unpaid parking - how quickly do they arrive and how to pay?
When living in the city, the daily hustle and bustle, we can sometimes forget about some things and responsibilities, and sometimes this leads to certain consequences.
Parking fines were introduced relatively recently, in 2016. Many drivers, who have not yet read this news, or simply do not notice the warning sign that they should pre-pay for parking, leave their vehicles in paid parking lots and go on business.
If parking is not paid for within fifteen minutes of the vehicle entering the parking lot, a monetary penalty will be imposed.
Its amount varies by region, for example in Moscow the amount is 5,000 rubles, according to Article 8.14 of the Moscow City Code on Administrative Offenses.
How quickly will the driver receive the notification?
Unfortunately, it is currently impossible to say exactly how many days later the notification that you have not paid for parking arrives, however, according to Article 4.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, a resolution cannot be issued if two months have passed from the date of the offense. Therefore, it must arrive no later than two months .
If for some reason, improper operation of parking lots, a large amount of work, system failures, you did not receive a fine within this period, but arrived later, you do not owe anything.
Where does the notification go?
The decision to impose a fine comes to the place of registration of the citizen in the form of a letter. If you use mobile applications, for example, State Services, Yandex.Fines or others, then notification of the fine will come in the form of a push notification.
In addition to the standard system for notifying about committed offenses by mail, in the modern world there are several convenient online services that completely replace paper notifications due to their convenience and efficiency. In order to refuse to receive notifications by mail and start receiving electronic notifications, you should activate this service on the official website of the Russian Post.
Where can you see electronic notifications about your fine? There are several options:
- Notifications can be viewed on the official website of the traffic police. To do this, you must enter your data (number of the vehicle registration certificate, driver’s license and car) in a special form. If you forget to regularly check notifications on this site, we recommend that you sign up for automatic notifications.
- For many cities, there are special mobile applications with names such as “Parking in Kazan”, “Parking in Moscow”, etc. After downloading and installing the application on your phone, you need to provide your data, and then you can use the “Fines” menu item and find out about their availability.
- In the online service "State Services". You should fill out an application by entering the details of your driver’s license and vehicle registration certificate, and then in the “Services” section you will find out about the fine. It is recommended to enable automatic notifications or install an application on your mobile phone for timely notification of violations.
- You can send a free SMS to number 7377.
Who sends parking fines?
Each city where paid parking exists has its own organization responsible for it. These are the so-called parking space operators who monitor the project. For example:
- Moscow - State Public Institution "Administrator of the Moscow Parking Space".
- St. Petersburg - St. Petersburg State Public Institution "City Parking Management Center".
- Voronezh - City Parking LLC.
- Belgorod - Municipal government institution "Belgorod parking space".
- Ryazan - Public joint-stock company of long-distance and international electrical communications "Rostelecom".
When do I need to pay and is there a statute of limitations?
After you have received notification of a violation, you have sixty days to pay this fine , in accordance with Part 1 of Article 32.2 of the Administrative Code. As mentioned above, the statute of limitations within which a decree can be issued to you is two months. The statute of limitations for an unpaid fine is two years.
We talked in this article about the deadlines for paying parking fines, and we wrote in detail about what a driver can face if he ignores a fine for unpaid parking.
Is there a discount?
Many motorists are confused by the innovation, namely a discount on some fines for violating traffic rules. According to this innovation in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, a driver can receive a benefit if he pays the receipt within 20 days from the date of the fine. Unfortunately, the Code also mentions that not all violations fall under this “indulgence” and a fine for unpaid parking applies specifically to such violations, so you won’t be able to get a discount .
Under what conditions does a 50% discount apply and in what cases can it be used when paying parking fines, read in a separate article.
How can I appeal?
Erroneous or unlawful imposition of a fine is quite common. In order to appeal a fine, you must, within 10 days from the date of delivery of the resolution or receiving a copy of it, contact the organization that controls the paid parking space in your city, and not the traffic police, because it is the responsible organization that is responsible for assigning the fine.
If you missed the ten-day deadline within which you can file a complaint, you have the opportunity to write a petition to restore the appeal period.
In order to file a complaint, you must fill out a special form and enter the following information:
- Provide your personal information (telephone, email, full name).
- Take the receipt, look at the date of the decision and its number, then enter this data into the text of the complaint.
- Give reasons why you consider the fine imposed to be unlawful and, if available, attach additional documents that may help make a decision in your favor (receipts, screenshots of notifications, receipts, photographs).
- Put the date and your signature.
You can submit a complaint in person by coming to the organization’s address ; if this is not possible, then use postal services. Moscow residents have the opportunity to use the “Unified Transport Portal” online service.
After the competent official has reviewed the complaint, you must be notified within three days by email of the decision made regarding the administrative violation.
Conclusion
Anyone, due to workload or inattention, can forget to pay for parking, so it is important to know what responsibility there is for this. Electronic services have greatly simplified the lives of motorists and paying a fine now takes just a few minutes. If you consider the decision illegal, then there is the possibility of appealing and making a decision in your favor.

How long does it take to receive fines for illegal parking? Is it possible to find out in advance?
Fine delivery time
It is impossible not to notice an obvious trend: the number of vehicles is steadily growing, the number of parking spaces is steadily decreasing. In large cities, their shortage is catastrophically noticeable, and therefore the fight against violators of stopping and parking rules has reached the municipal level. If you parked in the wrong place, you screwed up, and you already have a fine for illegal parking. But the driver does not find out about this immediately, but only when he receives by mail a copy of the resolution of the traffic police or another authorized body (for example, in Moscow these are MADI and AMPP). How many days do fines for unpaid or prohibited stops and parking arrive and how can I find out about them in advance?
Is there a deadline for sending a fine to the violator?
Undoubtedly! Since violation of stopping/parking rules is an administrative offense, the fine for improper parking in 2019 is imposed by a resolution made according to the rules established by the Code of Administrative Offenses.
Thus, according to Article 4.5 of the Administrative Code, a decision in a case of illegal parking must be made no later than 2 months after such a violation was recorded. Accordingly, the traffic police have 2 months after identifying the violator to consider the case, impose a fine and issue a resolution on the administrative case.
Cases of this kind are classified as simple and do not require special consideration; the entire period is not used by police officers - the consideration of the case and the imposition of a fine by the traffic police for an incorrect stop occurs either on this day or the next day after drawing up a protocol on the administrative violation.
According to Article 29.11 of the Administrative Code, the consideration of the case ends with the issuance and announcement of a resolution, which indicates the amount of the fine. A copy of the said decision, within three days from the date of its issuance, is sent by registered mail to the person in respect of whom it was issued - that is, to the violator himself.
The further period, how long it will take for the fine to be sent to the violator, will depend solely on the work of the Russian Post. Again, subject to compliance with all procedural deadlines and by the traffic police officers themselves.
How long does it take for the offender to receive the fine?
Taking into account all that has been said, in an ideal model, a copy of the resolution should be delivered to the address of the parking violation violator within 7-10 days. In practice, this period is usually 2-4 weeks or even more.
As a rule, the reason for such delays is failure to comply with procedural deadlines on the part of police officers. They delay the deadline for sending copies of the decision and send them much later than within three days from the date of issuance.
And this, meanwhile, violates the interests of the offenders themselves. According to Part 1.3. Art. 32.2 of the Administrative Code, a driver who intends to pay a fine for illegal parking within twenty days from the date of the decision has the right to pay it in the amount of 50% of the initially assigned amount. Due to failure to comply with procedural deadlines on the part of the traffic police, a copy of the decision may arrive to the driver much later, which will deprive him of the right to a discount when paying a fine.
Where is the resolution sent?
Documents are sent to the address of the offender’s place of residence, where he is registered, or in accordance with the information about which the traffic police has (Part 2 of Article 25.15 of the Administrative Code).
That is, if the driver’s actual place of residence does not coincide with the data from the police database, with a high degree of probability the driver will not receive a copy of the decision. But this does not mean that the resolution will not gain legal force and a fine for violating parking rules will not be forcibly collected from the driver through the FSSP.
Failure to receive a copy of the resolution in 2019 is not at all grounds for exemption from liability. The fact that the decree was not received by the violator, no matter how much the drivers would like it, definitely plays against them. Even if they do not live at the registration address and have never lived at it.
The fact is that, according to the Review of Practice of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, if the recipient of a copy of the resolution is not at the sending address or avoids receiving the resolution, it will be considered to have entered into force from the date of its return to the traffic police indicated on the postal notice.
Accordingly, the violator not only does not know how much the fine for illegal parking is imposed on him, but also:
- will not be able to pay it within 20 days from the date of issue with a 50% discount;
- risks receiving a new fine under Art. 20.25 of the Code of Administrative Offenses in double the amount of the unpaid initial fine, since it is considered that he has evaded punishment.
Is it possible to find out about the fine in advance?
In the context of all that has been said, parking rule violators, first of all, should be concerned with the question: is it possible to find out about a fine for violating parking rules in advance? We have the answer - of course you can! Depending on the region of residence, drivers can use various information services to check fines, including:
- Service for checking traffic police fines on the traffic police website. To find out in advance about the fine imposed for violations of parking rules, please use the driver's license number and details of the registration certificate for the car. Here punishments appear, as a rule, first of all.
- State Services Portal. The service is available only to registered and authorized users who have specified their driver's license and vehicle registration certificate information in their profile. To receive notifications about fines in real time, it is recommended to install the State Services mobile application.
- Mos.ru service (available only for Moscow residents). For verification, the details of the license or the number of the car registration certificate are used. In addition, residents of the capital can send a free SMS message to 7377 for verification with the text “fine Series Registration Certificate Number” or with the text “fine Series License Number.”
- Various local services, for example the mobile application “Moscow Parking”, “Kazan Parking” and so on.
- Through the Yandex.Money service. In the Payment for services section there is a service Traffic police fines: verification and payment. The check is carried out using the details of the license and the vehicle registration certificate. The service is available only to registered users.
- Through Sberbank Internet banking. In the Pay and transfer section, you must select the subsection Payment for services → Fines. The service is available only to bank clients.
In addition, subscribers can set up to receive registered letters electronically on the Russian Post website. Using this service, drivers will be able to receive traffic police regulations in the form of an email. Letters are sent immediately as soon as the traffic police sends a copy of the decision.
The letter displayed in your personal account will contain a PDF document similar to a paper letter, the status of payment of the fine and a delivery report certified by an electronic signature.
This method of notifying drivers will allow them to receive copies of decisions in a timely manner, regardless of their actual place of residence and employment. However, such a service, probably due to technical problems, is not available in all regions. You can find out about the list of regions where this service operates here.

In many large cities of Russia, paid parking lots have been open for several years. The need to organize such facilities is caused by a significantly increased number of cars on the roads, and, as a result, an increased load on the transport infrastructure of cities.
All drivers, with the exception of privileged categories of citizens, are required to pay for the time the car is in the territory of a paid parking space. If this rule is not followed, an administrative penalty will be imposed on the motorist. How quickly parking fines arrive is described below.
Penalty amount for non-payment of parking
Mostly, residents of large cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg, etc.), as well as legal entities, resort to paid parking services. For each locality, the amount of the fine for non-payment of parking will be different depending on:
- from current regional regulations;
- status of a motorist (individual or legal entity).
These nuances are given in more detail below.
For drivers representing companies, the amount of collection for unpaid parking is in the range of 30-50 thousand rubles. This status includes vehicles that are registered to an enterprise registered as a legal entity.
In Moscow and St. Petersburg
In the Russian capital, the paid parking area is so vast that almost every company allocates special spaces in a designated area for clients who can leave their cars while visiting the organization.
But if the car owner left the car in a public paid parking lot, which is marked with special signs in accordance with traffic regulations, and did not pay for it, then he faces a fine of 2,500 rubles. in accordance with Part 2 of Article 8.14 of Moscow City Law No. 45 of November 21, 2007.
In the northern capital of the Russian Federation, the parking situation is almost the same as in Moscow. But the fine for non-payment of parking is higher – 3,000 rubles. This procedure is prescribed in Decree of the Government of St. Petersburg No. 543 of June 23, 2014.
Attention: The first 15 minutes of a car being in the parking lot are free. After this period, the regulatory body has the right to seize the car with the help of a towing service to the impound area. And this will entail additional expenses for the motorist: from 5 thousand rubles for the services of a tow truck, plus an hourly payment for keeping the car in a special parking lot (except for the first day).
Is there a 50% discount
The peculiarity of paying a fine for unpaid parking is that the car owner cannot pay it off with a 50% discount. The list of penalties with such a benefit is recorded in Art. 12 and 32 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
Important to know: This document does not apply to the type of fine in question, since the law on penalties for non-payment of parking was adopted by the Government of Moscow (or another city).
Payment Methods
Based on current legislation, the driver is required to pay the fine within two months. If he does not do this, then another administrative offense is imposed on him.
Next, the case is submitted to the Federal Bailiff Service, which has the right to seize the defaulter’s bank accounts or place the offender under arrest for up to 15 days. It is also possible to receive a punishment of 50 hours of correctional labor, but you will still have to pay the penalty.
To avoid facing such measures, you must pay the decree on time, which usually comes in the form of fines for unpaid parking. This can be done in one of the following ways:
- in the bank. In order to pay the traffic police fine, you must personally visit a banking organization with the received resolution. It contains all the details of the department where the money transfer needs to be sent. In addition, the documents contain a QR code that can simply be brought to the reader and the collection data will be automatically entered into the input form;
- mobile applications. Several special programs have been developed for smartphones that allow you to pay for a fine quickly and without additional fees. For example, “Moscow Parking” or “Yandex Parking”;
- ATMs. You can also pay the imposed penalty using an ATM. The only difficulty is that you will need to enter the recipient's details yourself.
- online. Payment can be easily made using the official website of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate or the State Services portal. Step-by-step instructions for performing this action are also provided here.
But no matter what option the violator chooses, he must receive the appropriate receipt. It is advisable to provide her number to the traffic police department that deals with the violation of a particular motorist. This will avoid problems that may arise if there is no confirmation of payment. This is especially important when a motorist urgently needs to travel outside the Russian Federation.
When to pay
How long does it take to receive a fine for unpaid parking? Typically, a document confirming the need to pay for the violation is sent to the motorist by registered mail within one month. The maximum period during which a driver can be charged with such an offense is two months.
Fact: There is no need to hope that perhaps a penalty will not be imposed. Each paid parking lot is equipped with means of photo and video recording of violations. Also, every 15 minutes a special vehicle with specialists from the controlling organization drives around the parking lot.
Thus, the topic of payment of sanctions for non-payment of parking, including the question of how long it takes to receive a parking fine, is discussed in detail. Every motorist is obliged to comply with the rules established by the legislative acts of a particular locality. If the driver is sure that he did not violate them, he can challenge the imposition of an administrative penalty in court.

Fine for unpaid parking
How quickly do you receive fines for unpaid parking? Is it possible to challenge a fine for unpaid parking? These questions are often asked to our specialists. According to statistics, every 20th fine for unpaid parking is successfully appealed. Paid parking spaces are specially designated, arranged and equipped with equipment. They are adjacent to the side of the road, roadway, bridge, sidewalk, overpass and are separated for vehicle parking.
In various Russian cities, parking rules have been changed and appropriate signs have been installed. However, many drivers do not notice them and ignore paying for parking. Each such action entails a fine for unpaid parking. In such parking lots, as a rule, free parking is established for emergency services, disabled people and veterans of the Great Patriotic War. Residents of nearby houses leave their cars at a reduced rate or in the evening - from 20:00 to 8:00 in the morning.
Fine for unpaid parking
How to find out the fine for unpaid parking? The amount of the fine in 2017 is 2,500 rubles; also, if parked in the wrong place, the owner of the car will pay 5,000 rubles for the services of a tow truck. Storing the car in the impound lot on the second day will cost 1,000 rubles. The fine must be paid within 40 days after receiving the receipt, otherwise the court may impose an administrative arrest for 15 days or prohibit travel abroad.
According to traffic rules, it is not a violation to park in an area where there is no combination of signs 8.8. “Paid services” and 6.4 “Parking”. If only sign 6.4 is installed near the “Paid parking” sign, and there are no other signs, the stop is completely legal. Signs 5.29 at the entrance to a parking zone according to traffic regulations indicate the starting point of the territory with parking permission and regulation using signs and markings.
Without appropriate signs and markings, the zone is not a toll zone.
A mandatory distinctive sign of paid parking is special markings. In its absence, the rule prohibiting the placement of vehicles in violation of the boundaries of parking spaces has not been observed. Road markings mark each place with oblique or straight stripes. Parking a car in the final sector, limited by the semicircle that ends the site, is prohibited, as it will create an obstacle for cars leaving the cross street. The absence of any condition for designating paid parking spaces is grounds for challenging the fine. A fine is unreasonable if the car has been parked for less than 15 minutes.
Check fines for unpaid parking
You can check fines for unpaid parking using:
- government services portal when filling out the appropriate form;
- forms on the traffic police website - the official website provides information about an unpaid fine linked to a specific car by vehicle number and car passport number;
- free SMS to number 7377 - mobile SMS service of the Moscow Government;
- special application “Moscow Parking”.
How quickly do you receive fines for unpaid parking?
How quickly do you receive a fine for unpaid parking? It depends on the speed of the postman, traffic police officers and other factors. Whenever a fine for unpaid parking arrives in the mail, the violator has only 10 days from the date of receipt of the notice to appeal to the structure that issued the decision, so it is necessary to find out who issued the fine.
A complaint against a decision to impose a fine must contain the personal data of the applicant - full name, registration, passport details, number and date of the decision to impose a fine, arguments that are the basis for recognizing the illegality of imposing a fine, signature, date. There is no provision for resubmitting a complaint.
The appeal is considered within 10 working days.
False fines occur due to failures in the payment system, parking meter errors, inaccuracies in parking meter details, parking time, or delays in payment data. The time spent in the parking lot and payment of fees are tracked by special machines called parking meters, which are equipped with cameras to photograph violations. When a car enters a paid parking lot, the lock is automatically activated. One of the cameras takes a general view of the car, and the other takes the license plate number. All cars that drive into parking spaces are included in the database.
The program screens out cars that have paid for parking and cars of beneficiaries, and 15 minutes after the start of parking, it transmits information about violators to the computers of the traffic police and data center. Operators process data received from parking tickets and issue fines to violators, confirming their actions with photographs of the car.
In addition, several hundred foot traffic police inspectors work with the parking lots, checking license plates and identifying cars that are parked in violation of traffic regulations. The tablet computer in the paid parking area automatically turns on and takes a photo of the car's license plate number. If the license plate is dirty or covered with a rag, such car owners are also considered violators. In such a case, the car owner faces an additional fine of 5,000 rubles.
How to avoid a fine for unpaid parking
If you do not agree with the fine, do not miss the 10-day deadline to appeal. Car owners are reluctant to pay fines for incorrect parking or driving into a designated lane, since the amount is not proportionate to the violation. The fine for running a red traffic light is three times lower than for parking. What to do to avoid being fined?
If you have been given a fine, you should not rush to pay the receipt, since the likelihood of information about it falling into the hands of the bailiffs is low. Traffic police officers cannot cope with the volume of fines, as well as bailiffs, who are not able to process a huge number of fines, judging by the publications of the department.
Some drivers use methods to deceive the car's license plate recognition system. The traffic police determines license plate numbers even with mud-splattered signs using infrared radiation, but the court will only consider photographs. If numbers and letters are not visible in a photograph, it cannot be valid and admissible evidence. This means that such a driver will not receive a fine. If the registration number is not determined, then there was no violation. Some drivers get out of the situation in a rather comical way by attaching snowballs to their license plate in winter, thereby avoiding fines.
We recommend that drivers who receive parking tickets consult with our experienced lawyers using the website or telephone. With their help you will solve any legal problems. The first consultation is provided free of charge; if you need comprehensive assistance, you can discuss its terms with a lawyer in person.
