| Will business permits be renewed automatically? |
No. All faculty or staff members who want a Business Permit may request one through their Departmental Parking Representative. Students are not eligible to receive a Business permit. The Departmental Parking Representative is responsible for using the Departmental Permit Registration System to request new or to renew Business permits purchased by the department. |
| In what areas is the business permit valid? |
The Business permit must be used in conjunction with a valid TAMU parking permit and authorizes parking in the following areas marked on the Business map:
- Plain spaces in designated surface lots
- University business spaces - 2 hour limit
- Central Campus Garage, West Campus Garage and lot 72
- Northside Garage and University Center Garage - unnumbered spaces ABOVE the second level gates

| Can the business permit be used for parking to go to class, closer to my office than my regular permit allows, for personal errands, or for special events? |
The business permit should be used FOR OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BUSINESS ONLY. It may not be used to park closer to your building than your assigned lot, to attend class (not including professional development seminars), for personal errands, or for special events (unless it is a part of your job duties to attend). |
| I currently have a BUSINESS permit and I'd like to renew it. What should I do? |
Have your departmental parking representative use the DPR Registration website to request a "new BUSINESS permit" for you and ask to have you listed as the custodian. |
| How do I change the mail stop that my Business Permit is associated with? |
Request a NEW Business Permit for the NEW mail stop and DO NOT renew the Business Permit for the OLD mail stop. |
