In the Kyiv Digital app, a new benefit for drivers with disabilities has been launched — they can obtain free parking at hourly municipal sites. The benefit is available to people with disabilities of groups I, II, and III, as well as to people disabled as a result of the war.
As Dilo writes, this is reported by the KMDA press service.
Parking for people with disabilities in Kyiv
At the same time, elderly retirees without the corresponding status pay for parking under general terms.
The free tariff applies only at designated hourly municipal sites. It does not apply to specially equipped parking lots and spaces where a separate payment procedure is provided.
How to activate free parking
To use the tariff 0 hryvnia/hour, you need to open the "Social Status" section in the Kyiv Digital profile and confirm pension status.
After that, in the "Hourly Parking" service there will be an option to use the concession. During each parking session, the driver must start a free session in the app — this allows the inspector to see it in the system and not issue a fine.
According to the Deputy Mayor of Kyiv Oleksiy Kostynynkov? (note: original text: Kostyantin Usov), the new feature is part of developing the city's digital parking services.
“We continue to make parking one of the most digitized and automated city services — with no unnecessary confirmations, certificates, or additional actions,” he said.
Deputy Mayor of KMDA Valentyn Mondryivskyi added that the city is gradually integrating into Kyiv Digital benefits and social statuses to simplify residents' access to city services.
Also in the app is a discounted parking subscription for residents who pay taxes in Kyiv. After confirming status, the subscription is linked to the vehicle’s number, so there is no need to launch a separate parking session each time.
As a reminder, in the first seven months of 2026 year, local budgets in Ukraine received 14,1% more from parking fees than in the same period last year. The total amount paid was 136,5 million UAH versus 119,7 million UAH in January–July 2025 year.
