Visitor parking permits

If you live in the City of Stonnington, you may be eligible for on-street residential parking permits for your visitors’ vehicles. This permit allows your visitors to park their vehicle in a Permit Zone and to overstay certain time restrictions whilst visiting you at your residence.

The City of Stonnington has transitioned to a digital parking permit system. 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.  

We will write to you before your permit expires with information regarding your transition to digital permits.
