Virtual Permits and License Plate Recognition (LPR) - Information
We are excited to announce that Parking at California State University, San Bernardino and the Palm Desert Campus now uses Virtual Permits with License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology. This change enhances campus efficiency, convenience, and sustainability by eliminating the need for physical parking permits.
Key Information:
- Your license plate is your permit. You will not receive a physical permit.
- All permits are 100% virtual, including student, faculty, staff, and residence hall permits.
- Vehicle registration is required. When purchasing a parking permit, please make sure to enter your vehicle’s license plate information in the Parking Portal. Registering is quick and easy, and it ensures your vehicle is properly linked to your virtual permit.
Parking enforcement is based on your registered license plate, so please ensure your information is accurate and up to date in the Parking Portal.
How to Register Your Vehicle:
- Log into the CSUSB Parking portal: The Parking Office - CSUSB Parking Portal
- Choose your active permit
- Select from an existing vehicle or add a new one
- Enter your vehicle's license plate information.
- Confirm your registration.
Registering your vehicle is quick and easy, taking only a few minutes whether you're using a smartphone or a computer.
Benefits of LPR:
Efficiency: Automatic recognition of your license plate ensures seamless parking across all appropriate parking areas.
Convenience: No more physical permits to keep track of, and no risk of lost or stolen permits.
