Permits are issued to walk-ins on a space available basis, and to confirmed reservation holders. Permits may be obtained in person either the day of, or the day before a trip begins. All members of a party must be present for a regulation talk at the time the permit is issued. Rangers will not issue permits during the last hour of visitor center operations.
Permits must be obtained at the district visitor center nearest to where the trip originates. For example, if your trip is in the Needles, you must pick up the permit at the Needles Visitor Center. Visitors entering the backcountry through remote locations (that do not involve passing one of the park's visitor centers) may receive their permits in the mail. In addition, permits for river trips and for campsites along the White Rim Road may be mailed in advance. The reservation office at park headquarters in Moab is the issuing visitor center for river trips as well as for mail permits.
In order to receive permits by mail, visitors must contact the reservation office at least two weeks before a trip begins. Groups must provide vehicle information for all vehicles that will be in the park overnight (license plate number, make, model and color), and coordinate parking arrangements for any vehicles left at trailheads before a permit can be mailed.

Reservations
Do I need a reservation? Reservations are highly recommended. Competition is greatest for White Rim trips during the spring and fall, Needles backpacking permits during spring, and for group campsites throughout the year. For these activities, groups should apply as early as possible. In the past few years, the Cataract Canyon allocation has been filling by late April or May. Unreserved campsites are made available to walk-ins on a first come, first served basis. Walk-in permits may be obtained only at district visitor centers. Reservations are made by mail or fax only. Write to the park for a reservation form.
