Whether you live in an HDB flat or not, we’ll share everything you need to know about HDB car parks, from obscure HDB season parking schemes to HDB parking rates in this article.

Regular HDB Season Parking
Most HDB flat owners are probably already familiar with this.
HDB season parking allows you to park within a designated group of HDB car parks at any time, without having to display parking coupons. The HDB parking rates are $80 to $190 for cars, $15 to $17 for motorcycles, and $85 to $185 for commercial vehicles.
HDB season parking is sold on a calendar month basis, and the car park lots are allocated to residents based on the order of priority.
Different booking dates are allocated to different priority groups, ensuring that everyone has a fair chance at making an HDB season parking application. If you live in an HDB flat, you’ll get first priority to book a car park lot.
If your preferred car park is full, you can always choose to park at another spot within the same HDB car park group. This ensures you’ll never have to walk too far to your vehicle.
If your vehicle is a car, you will also need to note the two tiers for this regular HDB season parking as the charges are different:
- Tier 1: Applies to a resident’s first car of the household.
- Tier 2: Applies to the resident’s subsequent cars and all cars of non-residents.
How to Apply for HDB Season Parking
You can make an HDB season parking application via the HDB season parking e-service or the Mobile@HDB app that can be downloaded from either the App Store for iOS or Google Play Store for Android.
HDB season parking payments can be made online either by credit card or direct debit.
HDB Season Parking Renewal
You can renew your HDB season parking either by automatic or manual methods.
Automatic HDB season parking renewals can be done via:
These methods let you automatically pay your fees every month, so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to renew your season parking. Plus, if you renew it with the GIRO scheme, you’ll receive a 2% rebate for every successful transaction.
If you prefer to do your HDB season parking renewals manually every month, you can do so by one of the 3 methods below:
- Renewal of season parking e-Service
- Mobile@HDB app
- AXS machines
The payment method for the renewal via the e-Service and mobile app is the same as the application. You can pay either by credit card or direct debit.
Do take note that you’ll be charged a full month’s rate. So if you renew your season parking later in the month, say on 15 June, you’ll have to pay the monthly rate even though you can only use it from 15 to 30 June.
Family Season Parking (FSP)
Recently made it a personal resolution to spend more time with your family? You don’t have to worry about forking out hefty car park fees from regular family visits through the Family Season Parking (FSP) scheme.
This is because FSP costs half that of regular HDB season parking rates. Yes, you heard that right.
With FSP, you can park at the car park lots allocated for HDB season parking holders near a family member’s home. This is applicable for any hour of any day, so you can visit your family more often without feeling the need to leave early.
There is no limit to how many FSPs you can purchase, as long as there are vacant lots at your selected car park.
Here’s a table of the monthly HDB parking rates for FSP, which vary according to the type of car park and vehicle.

Sheltered (e.g. multi-storey car park)

What Are the Various HDB Parking Offences I Should Know About?

- Park on a red lot without holding a valid HDB season parking subscription
- Exceed your parking time
- Park on or beside double yellow lines
