Pay the Parking Ticket
You are required to respond to a parking ticket within 30 days of the date the ticket was issued, otherwise penalties will be added to the original fine.

You can pay your ticket(s) in several ways:

Pay by Mail
Follow the instructions on the back of the ticket. Respond early enough so that, allowing for mail delivery, Finance receives your response to the ticket by the 30th day from the date the ticket was issued.

• Check “Guilty” in the top box on the back of the ticket
  Complete the information in that top box (Name, Address, etc.)
• Do not send cash. Enclose a check or money order for the full amount indicated on the front of the ticket. Make your payment to “NYC Department of Finance,” and put the ticket number, your license plate number, and the state of the vehicle registration on the front of your payment. PLEASE NOTE: Checks must be drawn on US banks.
