Was this answer helpful for you? How does licence plate recognition work at the barrier?
Some parks have number plate recognition at the entrance barrier. If this is the case, you will find this information in the arrival information. Upon arrival at the park, open the barrier with the PIN code you received in advance by email. Once the barrier is open, you are automatically checked in and can drive to your accommodation or camping pitch. During the rest of your stay, the barrier will open automatically via number plate recognition. It is not (yet) possible to provide your number plate in advance.
Please note: there is a maximum number of cars allowed per accommodation. Once your number plate has been registered, you cannot change it.
