Irish translation:Ceadúnas páirceála
Explanation:
Ceadúnas = "licence/permit" (masc. noun)
Páirceáil = the verb "to park"

When combined with "ceadúnas", "páirceáil" takes the genitive case and becomes "páirceála".

As "ceadúnas" is a masculine noun, you do not need to alter it or make and changes when using the definite article so "the parking permit" is simply "an ceadúnas páirceála"

Apologies, but example sentence should read:

"Má theastaíonn uait páirceáil anseo, ní mór duit ceadúnas páirceála a chur ar theaspeáint i d'fheithicil"
