Most addresses in our resident zones are entitled to two lots of visitor permits per year, but not every zone has visitor permits as part of their scheme. You can either buy two blocks of digital visitor hours or two books of 30 one-day scratch card permits or buy one of each type.
The cost of visitor parking permits is currently £30.00 per book or allocation of visitor hours.
Visitor permits allocations are calculated from the date of purchase in the current, or previous year. For example, if you were to purchase 1 book of scratch cards or digital hours today, that allocation would not be available to buy again until this date the following year. You can view your purchase dates via the Payment History section of your account.
If you have already registered for an account to buy permits for your address, select the home page when MiPermit opens using the link below and buy via your account. If you have not already registered at your address with MiPermit you can do so, as you buy your 1st permits.
Digital visitor hours
Prepaid digital visitor permits work similarly to paying for parking by phone or an app. You enter the registration number of your visitor’s car or cars and select the number of hours needed for the duration of their stay. That stay will be deducted from your prepaid available hours. You’ll do this using the MiPermit App which is free to get from your devices online App shop.
Rather than having to use a full one-day scratchcard for a visit that might only be a couple of hours, you get greater flexibility to use your hours exactly as needed using the App – and you can easily extend a visiting period if it turns out that more time is needed.
Visitor scratch card permits
A book of 30 visitors’ permits costs £30.00 (dependent on your location, restrictions apply). These can only be used by visitors to the address to which they were issued. They are not transferrable, refundable and cannot be sold on to anyone else.
