Resident Permits

Purchasing Permits

To purchase resident permits, select Buy Digital Permits followed by Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council and select the Residents Permit.

For first time on-street resident permits, select the Resident Permit option and input your council tax number, postcode and house number/name. Select your property and continue. You will then be able to input your details to create your account and continue to make the purchase. Any further purchases can be made via the Buy Digital Permits section of your account.

Permit types are designated as 1st and 2nd. Permits designated 1st will be the 1st permit at the address, any additional purchases must be designated 2nd. Click the Permit Type box to select the relevant permit type.

Somerset Council offer Band A permits for vehicles 100g CO2 and under and Band B permits for vehicles 101g CO2 to 110g CO2. These can be selected from the Permit Type box and require approval by Somerset Council.

Please note: Permit reviews are undertaken by Somerset Council. Should a permit be rejected, you will need to reapply in the same manner as you had done so. Transactions made are cancelled if a permit is rejected, meaning it will return to your available balance. Timescale for this depends on your bank/card provider.

Should you wish to discuss the reasons for rejection in depth, please contact Somerset Council directly.
