Buy or renew a resident parking permit

Most people who live in Islington can apply for a parking permit. You are not entitled to a permit if you live in a permit-free property. Check the list to see if your address is permit-free (PDF).

The cost of the permit depends on whether you have a car/van or motorbike/scooter. You can find out how much your permit will cost before applying.

Please note the terms and conditions for the issue and use of a permit.
