Apply for a disabled parking space

Do you have a disability and do not have your own parking space? Then you can apply for a disabled parking space from the municipality.

Approach

This is how you apply for a handicapped parking space:

  • You apply for the disabled parking space at the municipality in which you live.
  • You will need:
    • A sketch of the desired parking lot
    • A copy of your disabled parking permit (driver's permit)

Need a new license plate or want to cancel your disabled parking permit?

Would you like to cancel your parking space, or are you getting a new car? Please let us know using the online form.

We will verify that you still have a valid disabled parking permit and that the license plate number is registered to your home address. If so, we will get started. It may take a while for the new sign to arrive. Do you have any questions? Please contact the municipality.
