Businesses and tradespeople

# Parking permits for businesses and tradespeople

Tradespeople on a job site, shopkeepers, companies based in the town: their needs are not those of residents. QR Blue gives them a permit type of their own, with its rules, documents and QR colour.

## What municipalities face

### Tradespeople who must park near the job site

Tools, materials, repeated visits: the blue zone does not suit them.

### Shopkeepers taking their customers' spaces

Without clear rules, business parking weighs on turnover.

### Permits multiplying

One company may apply for more permits than it needs.

### Rights that look alike during checks

Officers must see at a glance on what basis a vehicle is parked.

## What QR Blue brings

- A dedicated permit type, with its own QR colour and zones
- Supporting documents specific to businesses, different from residents'
- A cap on permits per company, with an alert for duplicates
- Tailored validity: yearly or until a fixed date, the same for everyone
- Online application and renewal, and online payment if the permit is charged

## Frequently asked questions

### Can a permit be issued for the duration of a job?

Yes. Validity is set type by type, and a type can expire on a fixed date, the same for all its holders.

### How do you stop a company multiplying permits?

A cap per company limits their number, and an alert flags duplicates to the staff member processing the application.

### Which documents should businesses provide?

Those set by your rules, for example a company registration extract or a certificate of activity. Each permit type has its own documents.

### Can officers tell a business permit apart?

Yes: the QR colour and the permit type shown during checks indicate on what basis the vehicle is parked.
