Charge point operators may impose an extra charge called the "overstay fee" if drivers exceed the advertised charging time.
โ€‹

This fee is designed to encourage drivers to vacate the charging spot and allow others to use it. The duration of the charging time may vary depending on the operator, but typically lasts for 60-90 minutes on rapid chargers or until the car battery is fully charged.

It is advisable to check the local signage for information on overstay fees.
