IMHO this is not a "permit", it is the documentation that your car
fullfills the requirements. In Italy you have to expose a small piece of
printed paper from your insurance company behind the windshield to document
that you have paid car insurance. No sticker means you can get a ticket. Is
a car insurance payment receipt a "permit"?

Not every document you have to apply for is a "permit".
