Disabled Parking Placards

A Permanent Florida Disabled Parking Placard may be issued to any individual with specific disabilities that limit or impair their ability to walk or who is certified as legally blind. Certification must be made by a physician or other certifying practitioner. The Permanent Placard is valid for 4 years and expires on the applicant’s birthday. Customers with temporary disabilities may apply for a Temporary Placard for up to 6 months. An additional placard may be issued to organizations or persons who certify they are frequent travelers or quadriplegic.

Fees

There is no charge for a four-year Permanent Disabled Parking Placard; the cost for a Temporary Disabled Parking Placard is $15.00. If a second Temporary Disabled Parking Placard is issued within a 12-month period, the second placard will be issued for no fee, regardless of the time period for which the physician has indicated it to be issued, not to exceed 6 months.

Display

Placards must be hung on the rear-view mirror of any vehicle used to transport the disabled person(s). The permit number must be visible from the front of the vehicle.
