Visitor permits

How they work, who can apply and what they allow you to do, including allowing your visitor access to restricted streets in Clean Air Neighbourhoods.

Visitor parking permit charges now reflect the emissions rating of your vehicle. The new charges took effect on 3 February 2025. We're doing this to combat the dangerous levels of air pollution locally and encourage alternative methods of travel. More details here: First rise in parking permit charges since 2012

Our visitor permits are part of the RingGo cashless parking system.

Who can apply?

You can apply for a residents' visitor permit if you live in a controlled parking zone (CPZ) in H&F. Or, you can apply for a 'car-free' residents' visitor permit if you live in an area of H&F that is not in a controlled parking zone.

If you are a Blue Badge holder or registered as disabled, you can apply for a Disabled residents' visitor permit which allows your visitor to park at a reduced rate.

What does a visitor permit allow you to do?

Your visitor permit will allow you, the resident, to book sessions for your visitor to:

  • park on street in a parking bay outside your property during the parking control hours for your home zone for less than the standard pay-and-display charge.
  • give your visitors, delivery drivers or tradespeople open access to a Clean Air Neighbourhood area, allowing them to drive through camera points on a restricted streets without incurring a penalty.

Once your permit application has been approved, you can book and pay for a visitor parking sessions online or via the RingGo app.

In most zones, the permit only allows one visitor to park at a time. See Help with your permit for information about how the permit operates in your parking zone.

All our permits are virtual so your visitor won't need to display anything in their vehicle.
