Does anyone know what the typical wording for the permit conditions on an EASA enduring permit to fly aircraft is? For example day, VFR, non-commerical operations and such like?

Does EASA have a permit to fly scheme like experimental ,LAA National permit to fly,
I was under the impression that EASA permit to fly terminology was a permit to fly to allow the aircraft. To be ferried to a place of maintence or similar reasons

Normally yes, they are just for purposes when the CofA or ARC is not valid and needs to be ferried and/or for flight test purposes.

However there was a period a few years ago when some aircraft being built to LSA standards were given what came to be known as 'enduring permits' in lieu of a CofA because an appropriate certification standard for them did not exist in EASA land. These were factory built aircraft and above the microlight weight limit, so in the EASA domain.

I believe they had some restrictions on their permits such as "non-commercial" operations only, but wondered if anyone had an example of the precise wording.

Have you tried the EASA website?

I have a Flight Design CTLS which is operated under an EASA Permit to Fly.

The Flight Conditions document is some 16 pages which detail the aircraft configuration (Engine, Prop options, W&B, Avionics options etc etc).

In answer to your specific question:

"Does anyone know what the typical wording for the permit conditions on an EASA enduring permit to fly aircraft is? For example day, VFR, non-commerical operations and such like?" here is the exact text from the document:

6.8. Other Limitations

Aircraft should be flown by day in visual meteorological conditions only.
Aircraft to be used only in non-commercial operation.

All limitations in the applicable flight manual must be complied with.
Pilot license must be at least the national license required for airplanes with MTOW of 600kg.

Flights over densely populated areas like cities, assemblies of persons, or similar are only permitted with a minimum safe flight altitude of 2000 ft AGL or 1000 ft above the highest obstacle within a radius of 600 m (2000 ft) (whichever is higher), or any altitude required to reach a safe landing place in case of engine failure, except when necessary for take-off and landing.

Operational Airframe Emergency Parachute is required.
