Incheon Airport parking fee per day: short-term, long-term and reserved lots, T1 and T2
Numbers checked against the official source on 2026-10-19
At Incheon Airport the short-term lot costs ₩1,200 for the first 30 minutes after a 10-minute free period, then ₩600 per extra 15 minutes (₩2,400 an hour), up to ₩24,000 a day. The long-term lot and the reserved lot cost ₩1,000 an hour, up to ₩9,000 a day, also with the first 10 minutes free. The official fee table is the same for passenger cars at Terminal 1 and Terminal 2; the page does not give separate per-terminal rates. For stays of a day or more the airport itself recommends the long-term lot.
Rates by parking lot
| Lot | Free period | Charge | Daily maximum |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short-term lot | First 10 minutes | ₩1,200 for the base 30 minutes, ₩600 for each additional 15 minutes; hourly ₩2,400 | ₩24,000 |
| Long-term lot (including the Terminal 1 parking tower) | First 10 minutes | ₩1,000 per hour | ₩9,000 |
| Reserved lot | First 10 minutes | ₩1,000 per hour, based on actual entry and exit times | ₩9,000 |
| Cargo terminal lot, small vehicle | First 45 minutes | ₩500 per additional 15 minutes | ₩10,000 |
| Cargo terminal lot, large vehicle | First 45 minutes | ₩600 per additional 15 minutes | ₩12,000 |
- The English page calls the last column "Daily Rate"; the Korean page says "daily maximum" (일 최대). We treat it as a cap.
- The ₩2,400 hourly figure matches the base-plus-additional pattern: the base 30 minutes ₩1,200 plus two 15-minute steps of ₩600 makes ₩2,400 for the first hour (derived arithmetic: 1,200 + 2 × 600).
- Short-term lot: passenger cars only, height limit 2.1 m. The same page says the short-term rates also apply to the corporation's Terminal 1 office lot and the Second Government Complex lot at Terminal 2.
- Small vehicle: every passenger car, buses of 15 seats or fewer, trucks of 1 ton maximum load or less. Large: buses of 16 seats or more and trucks over 1 ton.
- Long stays: the page recommends the long-term lot for cars staying a day or more. Group (chartered) buses cannot park in the Terminal 1 long-term lot; the page points them to the cargo terminal.
Reserved lot rules
- Reservations can be made from 45 days before to 4 hours before the planned entry time, for stays of 1 day or more and under 30 days.
- Entry is allowed from 4 hours before to 4 hours after the planned time. Changes are possible until 4 hours before entry; cancellation until 4 hours after the planned entry time. If you do not enter within 4 hours of the planned time (no-show), the booking is cancelled automatically.
- Vehicles of 2.8 m or more cannot use the reserved lot.
- The reserved lot has no staffed booth; pay at the unmanned machine at the exit. The airport page sends you to the reservation website for the reservation payment methods.
- An expired promotion is still printed: the fee pages say the Terminal 1 reserved lot has a limited-time discount of ₩7,000 per day "until February 28, 2025". That date has passed, so it is not included in the table above.
Discounts
| Who | Discount | How |
|---|---|---|
| Compact (light) cars as defined in the Motor Vehicle Management Act rule | 50% | No documents; the vehicle is checked through administrative data |
| Disabled persons, organisations' vehicles, national merit holders with disability ratings and similar groups | 50% | Real-time discount after the administrative data check |
| Multi-child families (two or more children, youngest 18 or under) | 50% | Pre-registration on the automatic discount website; no on-site discount; only Korean-national families |
| Low-emission vehicles confirmed by the Korea Environment Corporation | Type 1 and 2: 50%; Type 3: 20% | Real-time discount, no documents |
- Discounts cannot be combined; if more than one applies, only the highest rate is used.
- Commercial vehicles such as call vans and taxis are excluded, unless you show papers proving personal use.
Paying and leaving
- You can pay at a pre-payment machine inside the lot (search your plate, pay, then leave), through the Incheon Airport Guide app, at a staffed booth, or at an unmanned exit machine.
- Staffed booth: cash, prepaid cards, credit cards, transport cards and Hi-pass cards. Unmanned booth: prepaid cards, credit cards, transport cards and Hi-pass cards. Pre-payment machine: prepaid cards, credit cards and transport cards.
- The notes for the unmanned machine include: "Foreign credit cards are not accepted." The page does not say whether this covers every way of paying, so a visitor with only a foreign-issued card should ask the parking office (below) or be ready to use cash at a staffed booth.
- Pick your own plate number on the machine; paying for another plate can delay your exit. Refunds and payment cancellations take more than two days.

Parking cost calculator
The calculator uses only the rates in the table: 10 free minutes, ₩1,200 for the base 30 minutes plus ₩600 per extra 15 minutes with a ₩24,000 daily cap in the short-term lot, and ₩1,000 per hour with a ₩9,000 daily cap in the long-term and reserved lots. The official page does not say how partial units are counted, whether the free 10 minutes are deducted, or how a "day" is counted. This calculator assumes: a started 15-minute (or hour) step is charged in full, the free 10 minutes apply only when the stay is 10 minutes or less (or the part left after full days is 10 minutes or less), and each full 24 hours is charged at the daily cap. The airport's own "estimated parking fee" tool on its site is the authority. Large vehicles, the cargo lot, valet parking and low-emission Types 1 and 2 are not covered.
