Basic information
People with severe disabilities have certain rights that enable them to get around in their daily lives. As a person with a severe disability, you can apply for a designated parking space for people with severe disabilities at your workplace or residence. The parking space can be located in front of your home or near your workplace.
You can apply for a personal parking space for people with severe disabilities informally. You may only submit the application for as long as your severe disability ID card or severe disability parking permit is valid. This is typically 5 years. If you continue to meet the requirements, an extension is possible.
If the responsible traffic authority approves your application, it will designate the parking space with official traffic signs.
The parking space may be located on public property or, in certain cases, on private property. If the parking space is located on private property, you will need a corresponding agreement with the owner of the property.Requirements

Deadlines & processing time
What deadlines must be paid attention to?
You can only submit the application as long as your severe disability ID card or severe disability parking permit is valid. This is usually 5 years.
How long does it take to process
Please understand that the installation of a personal disabled parking space cannot take place within a very short time due to the extensive checks and the consultation procedure. Marking the space is particularly difficult in the winter months, as the markings have to be applied to a dry road surface.
