Since February, several residents of the Bidasoa region have received letters to collect fines for improper parking in Hendaia. After the Basque Government's Department of Security warned of possible fraud and announced the opening of an investigation, the Hendaia People's House has issued a note confirming the veracity of the warnings.

The City Council has stated that it has reached an agreement with a French collection company (CARE Office) to collect in a "satisfactory" manner the parking fines imposed on foreigners and which are out of time. CARE, for its part, has empowered ML International , based in Madrid, to carry out collection procedures in the Spanish State.

The People's House recalls that the parking fine is administratively understood as an invoice and is not subject to any deadline, and therefore stresses that the procedure is legal. At present, the established procedure refers to 2,200 letters and stresses that the use of the QR code is safe.
