City Stickers and Guest Passes
Quick Links
Who Needs a City Sticker?
All Chicago residents who own vehicles are required to purchase a city sticker from the City Clerk. If you live in a residential permit zone, you can also add the zone number to your city vehicle sticker and access daily guest passes.
Where Do I Get a Guest Pass or City Sticker?
Our office cannot issue city stickers or guest permits, except for LV2 Cubs Game guest passes. You can purchase your city sticker online, via mail, or at one of the City Clerk’s three locations:
City Hall, 121 N LaSalle, Room 107 - open M-F 8AM-5PM
Satellite Office, 5430 W Gale - open M-F 9AM-5PM
Finance Office, 4445 N Pulaski - open M-F 8AM-6:30PM - NO guest passes, transfers or exception letters at this location
Most currency exchanges. NO guest passes, transfers or exception letters at this location. Additional service fees may apply.
How Do I transfer my city sticker to a new vehicle?
If you get a new vehicle, you may transfer your existing vehicle sticker to your new vehicle by going to the City Clerk’s office. Please bring your old sticker, state vehicle registration ID card, and proof of purchase date for the new vehicle. The transfer fee is $5, though it may change if the type of vehicle changes (i.e. sedan to SUV), and if the transfer is within two months of the sticker renewal date, you may be required to pay the renewal fee.
