Clamper Not Licensed (PSA)

Vehicle clampers in Ireland must be licensed by the Private Security Authority. Unlicensed clamping is a criminal offence.

Legal basis

Private Security Services Act 2004 (Ireland); Vehicle Clamping Act 2015.

How to identify this in your case

Request clamper's PSA licence number. Verify with PSA register.

Sample appeal wording

I request confirmation of the PSA licence number of the individual who clamped my vehicle. Under the Private Security Services Act 2004, vehicle clamping on private property requires a PSA licence. If the clamper was not licensed, the clamping was unlawful. I will verify any licence number provided with the PSA's public register. If no valid licence existed, I am entitled to a full refund and will file a complaint with the PSA and An Garda Síochána.
