Hylands car parks

Register on MiPermit

You need to register on MiPermit before you can buy a cashless parking stay and access the discounted parking rates.

To register on MiPermit, you will need your:

• Council Tax account number
• house number
• postcode

You only need to register an account the first time you buy a cashless parking stay.

If other people in the household want to buy a cashless parking stay, they can either:

• be added by the main account holder as additional members
• register for their own account

Registering an account will verify that you are a Chelmsford resident and have access to the discounts.

If you already have a MiPermit account, you do not need to register a new account. You just need to log in to MiPermit using your existing details. You can then read our guidance about how to register for your Hylands Parking Saver.

Getting a Council Tax account number

If you are unable to find your account number, you can:

• view instructions on how to find your Council Tax account number 
• request your Council Tax account number

If you have recently moved and don't yet have your Council Tax account number, we can set up your MiPermit account for you. You will need to contact Parking and provide proof of residency, such as your tenancy agreement or a utility bill from the last three months.
