If you need to park on a yellow line, for example to carry out work on a property, you'll need to apply for a virtual parking dispensation.  

You must apply online at least 7 working days before you need it.

It costs £32 per day.

There's no charge for some businesses like glazing and scaffolding companies, but they must still apply for a dispensation.  

Apply online  

If you have not used this service before, you'll need to set up your online permit account.  

What you need to apply  

You'll need to tell us:  

  • the vehicle registration number
  • when you need to park
  • where you need to park
  • how long you need to park for
  • why you need to park on a yellow line

If you do not know the vehicle registration number when you apply, you can add it later before you need to park.

If you cannot apply online, call Customer Services on 020 8921 4339.

What happens next

After you apply, we'll check your application.

If we approve the dispensation, you'll get an email to confirm. If there's a fee to pay, you'll need to login to your online account and pay by credit or debit card.
