If you need any assistance with the application of a digital parking permit, please contact Customer Service on 1300 434 434 or  council@northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au

Digital permits are being implemented with a staged approach. The rollout of digital parking permits for the Manly Parking Permit scheme is scheduled for March 2026, while the rollout of digital parking for the Beach Parking Permit scheme will commence mid-2026.  Further instructions for those permits will be provided in advance of those dates. 

We operate several parking schemes across the Northern Beaches that require displaying a parking permit to avoid time restrictions or parking meter fees.

Beach parking permits are due to expire on 31 August 2026.
