About our parking system - NSL Apply

NSL Apply allows you to apply and manage parking permits and vouchers from your online permit account. You can apply for permits and vouchers in a single transaction, with no need to email documents or request your PIN.

The system is provided by our Parking Enforcement Contractor NSL Ltd.

How to access your parking system account

Our system is an account based system which you can set up and access using your email address as your username, and your own secure password.

You will no longer require a PIN or a permit reference number.

New customers

If you would like to apply for parking permits or vouchers, you need to register for an account first.

When creating your account, we recommend that you use your current email address as your username. You will also need to create a password. The system will use your email address to send you important messages, confirmations and password reset requests. Once an account has been created you will be able to access and manage your account.
