If you have the ec fonts installed, you can try to use
\textperthousand (marked as TeX).
Otherwise, here is a definition I found in a LaTeX FAQ:
\newcommand{\promille}{%
\relax\ifmmode\promillezeichen
\else\leavevmode\(\mathsurround=0pt\promillezeichen\)\fi}
\newcommand{\promillezeichen}{%
\kern-.05em%
\raise.5ex\hbox{\the\scriptfont0 0}%
\kern-.15em/\kern-.15em%
\lower.25ex\hbox{\the\scriptfont0 00}}
Just add that in your preamble, and use \promille in the text.
