Parking Tickets (Infringement Notices)

If you've received a parking ticket you can pay for this either online or in person.

Paying a fine issued within the past 24 hours

Details of infringement notices are usually transferred to Council's online payment services within 24 hours. If your parking ticket has been issued within this timeframe, you may need to wait before you can pay online.

When payments are due

Payments for parking infringements are due 28 days after the ticket is issued. If you don’t pay within this time, we'll send you a reminder notice and give you a further 42 days to pay.

After this period, unpaid tickets may be referred to the Ministry of Justice, where debt collection is managed by the Courts. If this happens you'll have to pay extra costs and you'll no longer be able to pay for your infringement to us as it is managed by the Courts.
