Apply for a disabled parking permit
Victoria has transitioned to the new Accessible Parking Permit (APP) Scheme and online administration system.
The new APP Scheme will streamline the application process, making it easier, simpler and consistent across the state. The new permit also will better align with the COAG 2010 Australian Disability Parking Permit Scheme (ADPS).
Improvements to the scheme include:
- Introduction of temporary permits for six, 12 or 24 months;
- Increased permit length, from three years to five years for individuals;
- Introduction of a permanent disability classification, so reassessments are not required for some people’s future permit renewals;
- A new single and secure state-wide permit design that will reduce the misuse of permits;
- The inclusion of occupational therapists as assessors, in addition to GPs; and,
- Double Time (green permits) and permits for organisations will continue under the new scheme.
