Purchase order terms for category Parking permits
Paid parking is available on the perimeter of the Exhibition Grounds during the event. The use of these parking lots and parking structures is at your own risk. You can order extra parking permits, as required. The agency which operates the parking facilities on behalf of Deutsche Messe is GfV (Gesellschaft für Verkehrsförderung).
Be sure to display your full-event parking permit visibly on the inside of your windshield (windscreen).
Many of our outdoor parking facilities and all of our parking structures are equipped with mechanical exit gates. To leave the car park (to open the exit barrier) please use the QR code which you can find at your exhibitor long-term parking permit (in the top right-hand corner).This authorizes the repeated opening of the exit barrier. Long-term parking permits will be sent to exhibitors by delivery note up to 14 days before the start of the event. Long-term parking tickets can then be picked up directly from the Exhibitor Service Center (ASC) against appropriate legitimation. After this time, you can pick up your full-event parking permits directly at Exhibitor service center (ASC) upon presentation of appropriate authorization.
If it turns out that you do not need all of your full-event parking permits, you can return them to GfV for a refund, but the last day to do this is September 21, 2025 (the last day of setup).
Please use form "Special parking permits" to order any parking permits for caravans (RVs) or mobile homes.
It is also possible to order additional full-event car parking permits over and above your
