Any Rules for Parking an EBike on a Street?

I just purchased an eBike (PAB), and I am wondering if there are any rules on street parking of eBikes.
For example, if I want to go into a small restaurant on a street, can I just lock the eBike on a pole by the sidewalk and eat inside?
Thanks.

In the first place, PMDS are banned in the country, so I’m not sure if you would even be allowed to use it in public.

To add to what the rat wrote, bicycles also come under the PMD category. Very much allowed. So not all PMDs have been banned.

Oh! I had always assumed that the delivery riders riding ebikes were doing so illegally.

Yup, I know there are number of vehicles that are still permitted, like electric wheelchairs for example. Just thought that the bikes fell under the same category as the scooters.

So interesting, no wonder we see so many of the bikes on the road.

There is no specific rules for ebike parking. I think you can temporarily lock it onto a lamp post, should not be any issues. There is very clear rules on where you can ride it, as explained by the Periodic Table in this thread.
Some basic rules can be found on these webpages below:
