About universal business permits

This permit allows parking in resident, short stay, and shared-use bays anywhere in Islington for businesses from inside or outside the borough.

A permit may have up to three vehicles on it but the permit can only be used for one vehicle at any one time. To park more than one vehicle, you must buy another permit.

You must:

  • use vehicles that are essential to the running of your business within Islington 
  • read the terms and conditions you need to agree to when purchasing or renewing a universal business permit.
