sms-parkingSMS Parking is a convenient way to pay for parking your car in the blue zone of Sofia city center by sending a text message to the short number 1302.  The price is 1 lev for up to 1 hour of parking.  The service is available from 8.30 AM to 6.30 PM on business days.

This service enables you to make a quick and easy request for parking in the blue zone in Sofia and to pay the proper fee by text messaging your car registration number to number 1302.

For example – Text : CA 1234 AB.

In reply you will receive the confirmation text message:
“Uspeshno zaplatihte parkirane na avtomobil s registracionen nomer C 1234 AB do 14:15.” -“You paid successfully parking of the car with registration number C 1234 AB till 2:45 PM.”

If you make a mistake with the registration number you will receive the following message:
“Nevaliden SMS! Molya izpratete samo registracionniya nomer na vashiya avtomobil na LATINITSA, naprimer C 1234 AB.” – “Invalid SMS! Please send only the registration number of your car in LATIN.”

Five minutes before the expiration time you will receive a reminder text message:
“Ostavat vi po-malko ot 5 minuti! Vremeto za parkirane na C 1234 AB izticha v 14:15. Izpratete nov SMS za da udylzhite svoeto vreme.” – “You have less then 5 minutes! The parking time expires at 2:45 PM. Send another SMS if you want to extend your time.”

If you want to extend your parking time, you can send another text message to number 1302. If you plan to stay more than one hour you can pay in advance by sending multiple text messages to accumulate parking time in one hour increments.

Tip *Once you send your car registration number, the system bind it to the number of your cell phone, so for an extension you need to send just a blank text message to number 1302.
