Changing, renewing and cancelling a PTS permit

Question:
Changing, renewing and cancelling a PTS permit
Answer:

1. If I sell my vehicle, can I keep my permit until I buy a new car? No - your permit must be cancelled in line with the permit terms and conditions, but you do not lose your right to a new permit under the PTS.

2. If I sell my vehicle, but I do not buy a new one, can I transfer my permit to another householder? No - but you are allowed to apply for a new permit under the PTS after you cancel your permit.

3. If I cancel my permit or it expires, can I apply for a new one? Yes - if you currently hold a permit or you moved into the property from 30 November.

4. If someone in the household cancels their permit, can I apply for a new one under the PTS? Yes

5. If my partner moves into the property, can they apply for a permit? Yes - but they must provide a letter from the Council or Housing Association to confirm that they have moved into the property.

6. If the blue badge holder no longer qualifies for a blue badge or they no longer need a permit, can I apply for a new one under the PTS? Yes - but the blue badge holder’s resident permit must first be cancelled.

7. If an active permit has been issued under the blue badge exemption, can I also apply for a permit under the PTS? No - as a household is only allowed one permit under the blue badge exemption or PTS.
