How to use a hotel parking permit 

Write the vehicle registration clearly in ink, in the blue box. If you do not complete registration, the permit is invalid, and we may issue you a PCN.

Scratch out one panel only from each of the following sections:

  • date
  • month
  • year
  • hour - scratch off the panel to the next nearest hour of your arrival time, for example, if you arrive at 1:15pm, scratch off 2pm.

If you scratch off the wrong panel, or more than one panel in each section, the permit is not valid, and we may issue a PCN.

Display the hotel permit so that all the details can be seen from outside the vehicle.

You can do this by:
