NI Parking Rules
Can a car be clamped for unpaid parking tickets in Northern Ireland?
Yes. Clamping and removal can be used for parking-debt recovery.
nidirect says clamping and removal operations can be used for debt recovery where parking PCNs remain unpaid.
This is different from simply receiving a first PCN for a parking contravention. If you have outstanding notices, deal with them through the official payment or challenge process rather than ignoring correspondence.
