If this is your first permit at this property, please confirm that your property is eligible to apply for permits.  You can check your property entitlements on the 'Am i eligible for a parking permit?' webpage.

Before you start your application, we recommend saving your required identification documents to your computer or device ready to upload.

Residential parking permit applications do require supporting identification documents.

From the 'My Port Phillip' home page, select ‘My Parking Permits’ and then either ‘Apply for a new parking permit’ or ‘Renew a current parking permit’.

If you are unsure which permit you are applying for, please review the parking permits webpage before making your selection.

Ensure you enter your address correctly and do not add any extra spacing if applying for an apartment or unit, e.g. 12/99a Carlisle Street, St Kilda.

Enter your vehicle registration details and state.

Visitor permit applications are not required to provide a vehicle registration and do not receive temporary digital coverage.

Please ensure you do not include any spaces in the registration and that you use capital letters as per your registration details.

This will ensure you receive temporary digital coverage for your vehicle once you have successfully lodged your permit.
