Parking Citations

A parking citation is given to a vehicle that is found in violation of a City or County ordinance or state statute. By law, the registered owner of the vehicle is presumed to have received the citation.

All parking citations must be paid within 30 days of the date the citation is issued. Late fees and other penalties may be added if the owner fails to pay by the due date. Parking citations left unpaid for more than 90 days will be reported to an outside collection/credit reporting agency.

Requesting Court Hearing

If you are the registered owner of the vehicle, or a person named in an Affidavit to Transfer Liability by the owner as having custody of the vehicle at the time of the violation, you may raise your defense before the court.

If you are not the owner of the vehicle listed in the parking violation, you will need to submit an Affidavit to Transfer Liability from the owner.

If you wish to request a court hearing it must be made within 30 days of the citation issue date. Court hearings are conducted via Zoom. You may download the Request for Court Hearing form and submit it along with a copy of the driver’s license.

All documents should be sent via email to parkingCT@miamidadeclerk.gov or via U.S. mail to:
