If you are a Croydon resident and live in a controlled parking zone, you can get a permit to allow visitors to park nearby. One permit is allowed per household.
Visitor permit types
You can either get a day permit or an annual permit.
Day permit
Most visitor permits are issued on a day-to-day basis, as and when you need them. The cost and timings of the permit depend on which zone you live in.
Annual permit
You can also get an annual visitor permit if you live in the central CPZ. This only applies on evenings and Sundays.
If you need parking for your visitors at other times, you will need a day permit.
