Apply for a personal parking space for severely disabled persons

People with severe disabilities have certain rights so that they can be mobile in everyday life. As a severely disabled person, for example, you can apply for a parking space for severely disabled persons at your place of work or residence.

To do so, you must meet certain requirements. For example, your severely disabled person's pass must show the mark for an "exceptional walking disability (aG)" or "blind (BL)". In addition, people who suffer from bilateral amelia, the absence of limbs, or phocomelia - hands and feet are located directly on the body - or comparable functional disorders can also apply for this.

You can apply for a personal parking space for severely disabled persons informally and only for as long as your severely disabled person's pass is valid. As a rule, this is a maximum of 5 years.

The prerequisite is that no suitable parking space is available on private land (e.g. on your own property, tenant's parking space, employer's own parking spaces).

Each application is a case-by-case decision. If the responsible traffic authority approves your application, it will designate the parking space using appropriate markings and signs. The parking space is then exclusively available to you.

The parking space can be set up in a public space or on a private area. In both cases, the parking space must be designated by means of the appropriate traffic signs. In order for such a parking space to be set up on a private area, a corresponding agreement must be in place with the owner of the area.
