Purchase a student e-permit online at myUFV by choosing the Campus Services tab. Credit cards are accepted.

Yes. All e-permits and hanging UFV parking passes are valid at all UFV campuses. Please note that if you are a student, you cannot park in the designated employee lots, or carpool and disability stalls.

Contact ICBC to get/register a new plate. Once you have your new plate, contact Impark to switch your e-permit over to the new plate.

Daily pay parking is valid only at the campus where it was purchased. There is no in-and-out benefit when you pay at the meter or with the PayByPhone app. Consider purchasing an e-permit so that you can move between campuses worry-free.

You were parked in a fire lane, and your vehicle was unattended. When parking to load or unload your vehicle, either pay for parking and obtain a cart to transport your items, or have someone stay with your vehicle while you are away from it (only if it's for a short amount of time).

Strict enforcement of pay parking is performed by Impark, and parking lots are patrolled frequently. Failure to pay for parking could result in a violation. Pay violations within seven days and pay $30 plus tax, or wait and pay $60 plus tax.

To pay your violation: See the ticket for payment option details and contact Impark.

To dispute your violation: Contact Impark. If daily pay parking was purchased, provide the purchase receipt including the stall number. If you are a permit holder, provide your e-permit confirmation number/Impark account number, or employee or student permit number.
