Double check your parking ticket before paying

We have had some reports of fake parking tickets (PCNs) left on vehicles in Islington and neighbouring boroughs.

If you get a PCN, please check:

  • it has the Islington Council logo, crest and 'for a more equal future' in the top-right on the front
  • the back has instructions on how to pay including the web address islington.gov.uk/pcnpay - if you use this you will see you will see a green band at the top with our logo
  • the back also tells you how to challenge a PCN
  • it has a detachable slip that says "do not pay the civil enforcement officer"

Our PCNs do not have a QR code that you scan with your phone camera to pay. Do not scan any QR code on a PCN.

Estate parking costs table

The cost of renting estate parking bays and garages varies according to the carbon emission rating or engine size of your vehicle.

For most vehicles the emission rating is stated on the vehicle registration certificate. If the emission rating is not stated the parking costs will be based on engine size.

The charges are up to date from 6 April 2026.
