Resident parking permit charges
Find out how much a resident parking permit will cost you.
How the charges are worked out
The cost of a resident permit depends on:
- how long the permit is for (6 months or 12 months)
- the fuel type of the vehicle (electric, petrol or diesel)
- the vehicle’s CO₂ emissions (g/km)
Electric vehicles pay the lowest price. Petrol and diesel vehicles pay more, because of the pollution they produce. Diesel vehicles cost the most.
Check how much your permit will cost
- Check the vehicle’s fuel type and emissions on the DVLA vehicle checker.
- Once you know the emissions, check the permit charge by using the relevant table.
- Add the petrol or diesel air quality surcharge to the permit charge. There is no surcharge for electric vehicles.
