Caregiver parking card

Caregiver parking card

A caregiver is someone who regularly, on an informal basis, looks after a close relative or friend who needs extra care due to an illness, disability, mental health problem or a dependency problem. As such, the caregiver can apply for a parking permit valid in the area where the person he or she is caring for lives.

If the caretaker is assisting several people, they may be able to obtain a multi-sectoral permit.
