If your permit starts with the prefix LJX please see the online e-permit terms and conditions applicable to your permit type.
By applying for a permit with the London Borough of Lambeth you must read, agree with and accept all the terms and conditions as set out below:
I confirm that all information I have given to the Council as part of my application is correct and accurate to the best of my knowledge.
I understand and accept that the Council may prosecute me under the Fraud Act 2006 and any other legislation that may be deemed to be effective if I have given any information on this form which is found to be misleading or untrue.
I agree for the Council to cancel the permit immediately if:
- I cease to require a vehicle for business purposes within Lambeth.
- I sell or dispose of the vehicle for which the permit is issued for. I agree to all the terms and conditions stated.
Use
The permit is only valid for the vehicle stated on it or as registered on your online account. The e-permit must be used in Business or shared used bays within the zone it is issued for.
Size of vehicle
Your vehicle can be either a motorcycle, passenger vehicle or a light goods vehicle with no more than 8 seats. The overall height should not exceed 2.3 metres. The length should not exceed 5.5 metres.
Change of vehicle
When you change your vehicle, you should immediately update the vehicle associated to your permit via your online account. You will be able to change the vehicle on the permit for a maximum of 3 times in a 12-month period from the date of your first application.
Permit refunds
If you no longer require your permit, you may apply for a refund. An administration fee of £5 will be deducted per permit cancelled. The refund amount is calculated on a pro-rata basis. For example, how many full calendar days remain on your permit.
No refund(s) will be given to permit holder(s) where the amount owing is the same or less than the administration fee.
No refund(s) will be issued for permits cancelled or rejected by the Council. No refund(s) will be due if the permit is cancelled due to a fraudulent application being made to obtain a permit illegally.
Suspensions
From time to time it may be necessary to suspend a parking bay, this is normally due to road works being carried out by the utility companies, such as gas or electricity. During the period for which the bay is suspended, parking is not permitted in the bay. Even if a valid permit is displayed / exists a PCN will still be issued and the vehicle may be towed away. It is the permit holder's responsibility to ensure that the bay in which their vehicle is parked is not suspended during the time their vehicle is there.
Proofs requested
Eligibility
Your business or organisation is within a London Borough of Lambeth's control parking zone (CPZ) and the vehicle or vehicles are used in the course of that business. The application should be in the vehicle user's name.
Criteria
To meet the criteria for a business permit you should have:
- A current copy of your National Non-Domestic Rate ((Business Rate);
- Valid certificate of insurance to prove that the vehicle or vehicles are being used for business purposes.
Permit Conditions
The permit is only valid for the vehicle stated on the front. It allows the holder to park in business bays and shared use (business and pay & display) bays during the hours of operation of the controlled parking scheme.
Unless you have purchased an all zones business permit, then the permit is only valid for the bays within the zone for which it was issued. The permit will display the zone letter, the zone area where relevant, followed by the letter 'B' indicating that it is a business permit. The permit must be displayed facing outwards, on the near side of the windscreen at all times. Failure to display the permit correctly may result in the issuing of a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) or removal of the vehicle.
