Find out which Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland suburbs have resident parking. Check zone boundaries and renewal dates and learn about permit allocation and caps.
If you live or have a business in a resident parking zone, you can apply for a parking permit or one-day parking coupons that let you park outside the usual time restrictions.
Permits are valid until the zone's annual renewal date.
Each zone has an annual set date for when parking permits need to be renewed. You will need to re-apply every year.
Each permit application costs $70 per vehicle (this is a flat admin fee) regardless of when you apply. It is most cost effective to apply for a permit on, or soon after the renewal date. If that date is soon, you may prefer to use free resident parking coupons in the meantime.
Applications are open until the cap for the area has been reached.
Check if your street is in a resident parking area.
To ensure parking is available, we cap the number of permits to 85% of the number of parking spaces in the zone.
We allocate permits one at a time, based on the priorities below (1 = highest, 6 = lowest).
If you are applying for several permits, you can only receive one in each allocation round.
The process stops once the cap is reached or when all applicants have received a permit.
To make the resident parking scheme sustainable, homes built after the notification of the Auckland Unitary Plan in 30 September 2013 are not eligible for permits and coupons.
Developers and new home builders should allow for adequate off-street parking in their plans.
