Utility parking permits are assigned for those who need to use a car or another vehicle to carry out their work in the centre of Lund. For example, you can apply for the utility parking permit if you have a workshop in your car or need to transport heavy equipment. 

Send your application to the Technical administration at Lund municipality via their e-service:

Report temporary change of cars 

If you have a utility parking permit you can report a temporary change of cars via email, for example when your regular car is the workshop for repair or service. 

Just send your ordinary car registration number along with the temporary registration number to info@lkpab.se. Don’t forget to inform us when your regular car is back in use.
