Visiting the UvA? Our locations are easily accessible by public transport and bicycle. Whenever possible, we recommend travelling by public transport or bicycle.

If you choose to come by car, you can park in public parking spaces. Please note that availability may be limited and parking fees apply.

Parking for visitors with a physical disability

  • Visitors with a physical disability can use designated parking spaces at several UvA locations, including Hogehilweg, Roeterseiland, BG1 and BG2. A valid European Disability Parking Permit (GPK) is required. Please inform your UvA contact in advance so that arrangements can be made.
  • If the location has no private parking facilities, you may park for free with a GPK in public disabled parking spaces in Amsterdam (Dutch only). In some cases, pavement parking is also allowed—provided you follow the municipality’s regulations (Dutch only). A disabled resident parking permit issued by the City of Amsterdam allows you to park for free throughout the city in areas where paid parking normally applies.
