• The applicant has to own the special parking card. It is possible to obtain this card with the federal Public service Social Security (cf. Social and fiscal advantages). The simple fact of possessing a certificate of this public service is not enough.
• The applicant does not have to have a garage or a private car park.
• The realization of the parking space must be technically possible. A booking in a street where parking is forbidden, or in a street where the parking 'alternates' is not possible.
• The applicant has to own a vehicle
• If the applicant has no vehicle, he can be driven by a person. In that case, there are 2 possibilities:
  - If the other driver lives in the same building as the applicant, he will be entitled to book a place.
  - If the other driver does not live in the same building as the applicant, he will not be entitled to book a place. On the other hand, it can be decided to mark the pavement with an intermittent yellow line, to facilitate stopping, loading and unloading.
• In certain cases, the public road manager can refuse the implementation of a place, for example in a street where there are already too many bookings. Indeed, a place for person with reduced mobility is never specific for one name and consequently useful for every person who owns the special parking card.
• A place can also be settled in front of the workplace of a person with reduced mobility. In that case, the public road manager often installs an additional panel mentioning the hours of the booking of the parking sapce (for example from Monday till Friday from 8 am till 5 pm).
