RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT (RPP) PROGRAM
Starting July 1st, residential parking permit applicants must submit an up to date Maryland vehicle registration in order to obtain a residential parking permit. This policy is needed to comply with regulations announced in May by the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration. (See MVA announcement.)
Residential Parking Permits allow Annapolis residents to park their vehicles on-street in one of the five (5) designated Special Parking Districts where they reside (See Map). The program is governed by the Annapolis City Code of Ordinances Chapter 12.32– Special Residential Parking Districts.
The purpose of the City’s Resident Parking regulation is to maximize the availability of parking for Annapolis residents while discouraging long-term parking on residential streets near or within commercially zones areas.
Annual residential parking permits may be purchased online or in person. Our office is located at 60 West Street, Suite 106. The office is open Monday – Friday, 8AM – 4PM. Parking is available in the Gott’s Court Garage. Look for the first few spaces on the left as you enter via the Calvert Street side.
Residents with an existing account may go directly to the login page, linked here or click the blue button labeled “Annual and Temporary Permits.” New residents or those without an account should click the blue button below labeled “Annual and Temporary Permits.”
Please expand sections below for more information by clicking the + (plus) symbol next to each.
All permit holders must provide required documentation with each new annual permit. Please click the + symbol below for more on this section under “What Documentation is Required.”
Stickers are required to be placed on your vehicle and should be fixed to the rear-windshield on the driver’s side. Stickers will be mailed to those purchasing online and are available in the office for those who purchase their permit in person.
Except for areas designated as metered, reserved, no parking zones, handicap parking or any other restricted parking; a valid resident permit authorizes a resident of that district to park all day on the designated streets within that special district.
To meet new residency criteria, Ordinance O-4-19 states residency is established by meeting the criteria of any of the enumerated items:
- A current Maryland vehicle registration and current Maryland Driver’s License with an address in a special parking district.
- Proof of ownership of a property in a special parking district and the property is designated as the owner’s principal residence with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation.
- Applicant is a lessee of a residential property located in a special parking district that is licensed as a rental unit.

- If you are not the registered owner but have permission to operate the vehicle you are required to complete the Certification of Possession Form form and include the required documentation.
- Payment in full is due at the time of purchase. Please refer to the rate chart below based on District, number of vehicles, off-street parking availability (i.e., driveway, garage, parking space). Permits are NON-REFUNDABLE.
