In Brief

The city of Daegu, South Korea, will conduct a special inspection of 1,303 public parking lots from June 8 to 29, 2026, targeting long-term parking of RVs and caravans, camping, and cooking. New regulations effective August 28 will impose fines of up to 1 million won.

The Daegu city government has announced a special inspection of municipal parking lots from June 8 to 29, 2026. The inspection will cover 1,303 parking lots (about 30,000 spaces), including 202 city-owned lots (7,602 spaces) and 1,101 district lots (22,128 spaces). Around 30 staff from city and district transport departments will participate.

Inspection focus

  • Long-term parking of RVs and caravans (so-called "occupation parking")
  • Camping, cooking, and overnight stays on parking lots
  • Vehicles exceeding parking space markings

The measures will be advisory in nature, involving notices and recommendations to relocate.

New regulations from August 28

Amendments to the Parking Lot Act, effective August 28, 2026, prohibit long-term parking without valid reason on free municipal lots. Violators face fines of up to 1 million won (about $700 USD). Control criteria have been expanded: the duration of parking will now be assessed across the entire lot, not just individual spaces, including cases of moving between spots.
