Parking per area
Rijswijk divides the town into parking areas, and per area it is set whether you pay, whether you may only park with a permit, and which rate applies. There are well over twenty of them, spread across the whole municipality: besides the numbered zones 1 and 2 those include Oud Rijswijk and surroundings, the Havenkwartier, Herenstraat, Kesslerpark, Park de Werve, Blotinghe, Mallegat, Eisenhowerplein, Ravesteijnplein, Colijnlaan, Offwegenlaan, Cor Ruysstraat, Don Bosco, the Te Werve shopping strip, the area around the Schouwburg and the Huis van de Stad, and the Plaspoelpolder business park.
The municipality publishes a map per area. On it you see exactly which streets belong to it, where the parking meters stand and what parking costs there. What the municipality explicitly adds: not every address on a named street automatically belongs to a permit area: new-build with its own parking is sometimes excluded.
What you need to know as a visitor
Because the rates and the paid hours differ per area, there is no single town-wide amount to name for Rijswijk. Always look at the sign at your space or at the parking map of the area where you are. That difference is not a detail in Rijswijk: a shopping area such as Oud Rijswijk is arranged differently from an office area such as the Plaspoelpolder.
Paying without going to the meter
If you are on a paid space, you can pay at the meter or start your session on your phone. With SimplePark you start as soon as you stop and you stop as soon as you drive off, and you pay by the minute. In a town where every area has its own hours, that saves you guessing how long you will stay.

FAQ about parking in Rijswijk (ZH.)
How do I know whether I have to pay to park in Rijswijk?
Rijswijk works with designated parking areas. On the municipality's maps you see per area where paid parking or permit-holder parking applies, and those same maps show the rates. On the street the sign at the spot where you park takes precedence.
Can my visitors park for free in Rijswijk?
Residents in an area with paid parking can apply for a visitor permit and register and deregister their visitor's licence plate via the Digital Parking Desk. Without that registration your visitor simply pays the rate of the area.
