You will be required to enter a reference, this should be a 10 digits long, starting with the letters matching your permit type (HP, CP or NSP), followed by your surname/part surname to complete the rest of the 7/8 digits. If your surname does not complete the 10 digits, add zero’s to end of your reference.

Changing your vehicle
If you change your vehicle or your vehicle registration number you must apply for a replacement permit.
Your first replacement in a 12 month period will be issued free of charge. Additional changes after this may incur a further charge.
Copy all the details from your current permit onto a note and display this in your vehicle.
Add the message "returned for change of registration number" along with the reference number you receive at the end of the application process, and the date you applied.
Please return the old permit to us with a copy of the new keeper slip or bill of sale for your new vehicle if you are unable to attach them to the online form.
A new permit will be issued and sent by post.
When parked in resident parking spaces, if the vehicle registration on the permit does not match the registration of the vehicle in which it is displayed, the vehicle could receive a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN).
Please also ensure you are parked in the correct assigned parking area to avoid a PCN.
Lost/damaged permits
If you have lost your resident permit or it has become damaged you can apply for a replacement. Please note this may incur a cost.
