Residential Parking Permits will not be issued to properties not used for residential purposes (ie used solely for commercial or another non-residential purposes).
Permits are not transferrable between residents of different addresses.
To check if your property is entitled to a Residential Parking Permit enter your residential street address in the 'Apply now' link.

We may consider withdrawing a fine or penalty notice. However, we require supporting documentation that shows something unexpected has occurred.
To have an infringement (fine or penalty notice) assessed, you need to provide verifiable and independent supporting documentation to support your request.
Your application for review is unlikely to succeed if you have previously received an official warning for the same or a similar offence.
Alternatively you may request an internal review undertaken by Fines Victoria.
To make a valid application for appeal you must establish and nominate at least one ground of review. You must be able to provide proof that your circumstances meet the criteria as set out below.
The contrary to law ground can be used if a person believes that the decision to serve the infringement notice was unlawful. For example, this may arise where:
the infringement notice is not valid (for instance, it is incomplete, or it does not otherwise comply with the formal legal requirements for an infringement notice), or
an infringement officer has acted unlawfully, unfairly, improperly, or beyond their authority in taking that action or decision.
Note that the examples in this section are not exhaustive.
Applications for internal review that are made on the ground of contrary to law should (where appropriate) be accompanied with supporting evidence. This may include photographs of parking signage, witness statements or other evidence that goes to establishing facts.
For applications made on the grounds of contrary to law, the following options are available to the applicant if the application is refused:
The mistake of identity ground is intended to apply where a person claims that they were not the person who committed the infringement offence.
Examples could include where the person claims:
This ground is not available in circumstances where the operator of a vehicle has been served with a traffic or parking infringement notice and they allege that they are not liable for the offence and cannot reasonably ascertain the identity of the person who was responsible for the offence. Such circumstances should be more appropriately addressed by lodging an unknown user nomination statement.
Applications for internal review on the ground of mistaken identity should (where appropriate) be accompanied by supporting evidence. Examples of supporting evidence for mistake of identity include the applicant’s birth certificate, driver’s licence or passport which shows:
An enforcement agency may make the following decision on reviewing an application for internal review based on the grounds of mistake of identity:
In some cases, it may be appropriate to do a combination of the actions above, in so far as that is possible.
For applications made on the grounds of mistake of identity, the following options are available to the applicant if the application is refused:
An applicant may lodge an internal review application on the ground that special circumstances apply to them.
This provision of the Infringements Act is designed to divert those with special circumstances from the infringements system at the earliest opportunity. This category was introduced in 2006 as:
‘A ground for seeking a review of a notice (is) that the person has ‘special circumstances’ that affected the behaviour at the time of the offence. This is a critical change to filter the vulnerable in the community out of the infringements system. People with special circumstances are disproportionately, and often irrevocably, caught up in the system...’
There are several categories of ‘special circumstances’ as defined in the legislation – further detail on those categories and the evidence which may be required to rely on each category is set out below. “Special circumstances” is practically and conceptually distinct from “exceptional circumstances”, discussed in Exceptional circumstances of these Guidelines.
The Infringements Act defines special circumstances in relation to a person as:
These definitions are expanded upon below.
In accordance with section 4 of the Mental Health Act 2014 and the definition of ‘disability’ contained in the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth) a mental disability, disorder, or disease or illness means a diagnosed medical condition that is characterised by a disturbance of thought, mood, perception, or memory. This may include:
Examples of mental illnesses include, but are not limited to:
In accordance with the definitions of ‘disability’ and ‘intellectual disability’ in section 3 of the Disability Act 2006 and the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth), an intellectual disability, disorder or disease means a disorder or malfunction that results in a person learning differently to a person without the disorder or malfunction. This includes:
Examples of cognitive or intellectual disabilities include, but are not limited to:
A person is considered to have a serious addiction to drugs, alcohol or volatile substances if that person has a maladaptive pattern of substance use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress, as manifested by three (or more) of the following, occurring any time in the same 12-month period:
Volatile substance – definition
Section 57 of the Drugs, Poisons and Controlled Substances Act 1981 defines volatile substances as:
The criteria for determining if a person is homeless is prescribed by the Infringements Regulations.
A person is considered homeless if they —
Common examples include where a person is:
The definition of special circumstances includes a person who is a victim of family violence within the meaning of section 5 of the Family Violence Protection Act 2008 (FVPA).
‘Family violence’ is:
(a) behaviour by a person towards a family member of that person if that behaviour:
(b) causes a child to hear or witness, or otherwise be exposed to the effects of, behaviour referred to in paragraph (a).
‘Family violence’ also includes the following behaviour:
Behaviour may constitute family violence even if the behaviour would not constitute a criminal offence.
The Royal Commission into Family Violence report,[49] tabled in Parliament on 30 March 2016, recognised the difficulties faced by victims within the infringements framework and considered that there are a range of car-related debt issues that arise in circumstances of family violence.
In making recommendations 112 and 113, the Royal Commission considered that family violence arose in circumstances where:
A person will be considered to have conditions or circumstances which are long term in nature and which make it impracticable for them to pay or otherwise deal with the fine in a very narrow category of cases.
This sub-ground of ‘special circumstances’ is intended to apply only to a very small cohort of fine recipients who have long-term and extremely serious circumstances that:
The legislative test excludes any circumstances that solely or predominantly relate to the person's financial circumstances. The infringements system contains other mechanisms for dealing with financial hardship, including payment plans, payment arrangements and the work and development permit scheme.
Examples include but are not limited to:
An enforcement agency may make the following decision upon reviewing an internal review based on special circumstances:
Enforcement agencies should also note the power under section 17 of the Infringements Act to refer a matter to the Magistrates’ Court. This power must be exercised before the fine is registered with the Director, Fines Victoria (or where it is a non-registerable matter before the expiry of the date for commencing proceedings).
This power does not apply to infringement notices relating to offences to which the provisions listed in section 17(2) apply. The legislation that establishes those offences has separate processes for referring those matters to court.
For infringement notices relating to alleged offences by children, agencies wishing to exercise this power must do so before an enforcement order is issued under Schedule 3 of the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 (External link) Where the infringement notice matter cannot be registered under that Schedule, the time limit on exercising the power is before the expiry of the period for commencing proceedings in relation to that matter.
For applications made on the ground of special circumstances, the following options are available to the applicant where a decision maker refuses the application and confirms the infringement:[57]
If an enforcement agency decides to refuse an application for internal review that has been made on the basis of special circumstances relating to family violence, the notification letter to the applicant should set out all the options available to the applicant, including their ability to apply to the Director, Fines Victoria under the Family Violence Scheme (FVS). See section 6.8: Family Violence Scheme (FVS) for further information about the FVS.
The exceptional circumstances ground provides decision makers with the discretion to determine whether the infringement is appropriate, taking into account the circumstances in which the offending conduct occurred.
Applications for internal review made on the grounds of exceptional circumstances should (where appropriate) be accompanied by supporting evidence.
Decision makers can take any matter a reasonable person would consider as relevant information into account.
Examples of supporting evidence could include:
An enforcement agency may make the following decision after reviewing an application for internal review based on the grounds of exceptional circumstances:
In some cases, it may be appropriate to do a combination of the actions above.
While financial hardship is not a ground for review, enforcement agencies may consider such applications under the exceptional circumstances ground. It is open to enforcement agencies to implement an exceptional circumstances financial hardship policy. Alternatively, where a person is experiencing financial hardship and is unable to pay their outstanding fines, enforcement agencies should assist the applicant, where appropriate, to negotiate a payment plan.
A person is responsible for their infringement fine even if they have been declared, or are seeking to be declared, bankrupt. A person who is declared bankrupt retains their rights to deal with the infringement notice including submitting a nomination statement or applying for internal review.
When a company is experiencing financial difficulties, it may be placed into external administration or liquidation. Companies that are in liquidation or under external administration may apply for internal review of their infringement fines.
An enforcement agency may consider a person’s bankruptcy status, or a company’s financial status, as evidence of financial hardship. It is also open to an enforcement agency to include a person’s bankruptcy status or a company’s financial status as a relevant consideration in any internal financial hardship policy that the enforcement agency may choose to implement.
Enforcement agencies should also consider the following:
Once an insolvent company is deregistered, it ceases to exist, and infringement fines cannot be recovered. Internal review officers should complete an online ASIC search on a company to determine the company’s registration status before processing any application in the name of a company. For more information, visit the ASIC website (External link)
This ground of internal review enables an applicant to lodge an internal review application on the ground that they were unaware of the infringement notice. Service of the notice must not have been by personal service.
An application made on the ground of ‘person unaware’ must:
Applications for internal review made on the grounds of person unaware should (where appropriate) be accompanied by supporting evidence. For example, copies of date-stamped passports, boarding passes, removalist invoices and mail theft reports made to Victoria Police.
Where an enforcement agency grants an internal review application on the ground of person unaware, the applicant may:[62]
If an application on the ground of person unaware is refused, the applicant must pay the infringement amount and prescribed costs (within 14 days of receiving the refusal notice).[64] The applicant will have the same alternative payment options available to them as are available for other grounds of review (that is, payment plans or arrangements, court referral or work and development permits (if eligible).
The Work and Development Permit (WDP) scheme commenced on 1 July 2017 to provide vulnerable and disadvantaged people with a non-financial option to address their fine debt. The WDP scheme is administered by the Director, Fines Victoria. A WDP allows an eligible person to work off their fine debt by participating in certain activities and treatment. Enforcement agencies are encouraged to promote this scheme to vulnerable community members.
A person must undertake a WDP under the supervision of a sponsor. A sponsor is an organisation or a health practitioner accredited by the Director, Fines Victoria to support the WDP scheme. Only a sponsor may apply to the Director, Fines Victoria for a WDP on behalf of an eligible person.
An organisation or a health practitioner may apply to become a WDP sponsor to assist their clients to deal with their fine debt and to encourage engagement with services. If an eligible person is already engaged with an organisation or a health practitioner that is not yet a WDP sponsor, the organisation or health practitioner can contact the WDP Team to get information about becoming a sponsor (see details below).

The Family Violence Scheme (FVS) is a specialised scheme to support people affected by family violence within the fines system. The scheme is administered by the Director, Fines Victoria. The scheme allows people to apply to Fines Victoria to have their infringement fines withdrawn if family violence substantially contributed to the offence or if it is not safe for them to name the responsible person.
Agencies should inform applicants about the scheme if family violence is mentioned in their application.
To access the Family Violence Scheme, a person must:
A person can apply to the Family Violence Scheme at any time from first receiving the fine until:
To help decide if the FVS is a suitable option, a person may wish to seek legal advice from a lawyer or by contacting a local community legal centre via the Federation of Community Legal Centres (External link) or Victoria Legal Aid (External link)
