Use this tool to find out what sort of ticket you have, what stage you are at and which deadlines matter. It also runs a timing check on a private Notice to Keeper for England and Wales. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is saved.

How the checker works
It asks where you were parked, what the paperwork says and when things happened. From that it decides whether you are dealing with a private operator or a council, which nation's rules apply and which stage you have reached. Then it suggests next steps and links to the right guide and letter.
Things to keep handy
- The notice itself, front and back, and the envelope if it came by post.
- The date and time you parked, and photos of the signs, bay and surroundings.
- Any ticket, receipt or app payment record.
Limits
The checker is general information, not legal advice. Rules can change, and your own facts matter. If a sum is large, a court claim has been issued, or you are unsure, speak to Citizens Advice or a qualified adviser.
