The allowed timescales for payment of penalty charges are stated on the PCN documents. We don't generally allow payment plans. However, if you're struggling to pay your fines in time, contact us by making an appeal online or through our PO Box address, find out more at Appeal against a parking, bus lane or Clean Air Zone fine.
If your case is already with enforcement agents, please go to Pay your enforcement debt.
