The City of Stonnington has transitioned to a digital parking permit system. This means you will no longer be issued with a physical permit to be displayed in your vehicle. You will instead be issued with a digital parking permit that is associated with your vehicle registration number.
We will write to permit holders approximately 6 weeks before their existing parking permit is due to expire to let them know about the new ePermit platform and the process to apply for a digital parking permit.
If you need to apply for a new parking permit now, you can apply via the ePermit platform.
If you already hold a physical specific vehicle parking permit or variable parking permit, you can continue to display this permit in your vehicle until the expiry date.
Digital parking permits will be valid for 12 months from the date of issue.
Our parking officers will be able to search your vehicle registration number and will be alerted if you have a valid parking permit.
About digital parking permits
A digital permit is linked to a vehicle registration number which means you no longer need to display a physical permit on your vehicle.
All permit types offered by Council will be digital.
The total number of permits you can have depends on your property. You can hold any combination of:
- up to three resident permits
- up to two visitor permits
To check how many permits you are eligible for, search your address on our interactive map or call our Customer Service team on 03 8290 1333.

You can create an account and apply for a digital parking permit via our ePermit platform or by attending one of our Service Centres.
Once your account has been set up, you can apply online for a:

- Visitor Permit (previously known as a Variable Permit)
- Special Occasion Permit (previously known as a Visitor Permit)
You will receive an email notification as your permit application progresses.
