Parking Permits for frequent travellers

Travel regularly with Wightlink and leave your vehicle at the port? You can save on your parking with a 30-day Parking Permit, which allows you to park in any Wightlink-owned car park at our ports for just £100.

To apply for your first parking permit, please use the form below, making sure you submit your application at least seven days before the date from which you require your Parking Permit to commence. You can top up an existing permit by logging into your Wightlink account.

Please read the parking terms and conditions before applying.

Introduction of ANPR

We’ll begin introducing Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) at Wightlink-owned car parks during the week of 14 September 2026. The change was originally planned for Monday, 14 September 2026 but will now take place later in the week.

Until ANPR is operating, existing parking arrangements will remain in place. Once the new system is live, we will no longer issue or renew 30-Day Parking Permits directly. New permits and renewals will need to be purchased through JustPark and each permit will be linked to one vehicle registration.

We’ll add details of how to purchase a permit through JustPark when the new system is available. Please follow the signs at your car park for the latest parking and payment information.
