Accessible Parking Permits

Victoria has transitioned to the Accessible Parking Permit (APP) Scheme and online administration system.

Residents and organisations who require a new permit, or need to renew or replace a permit, need to apply with the new application process.

The APP Scheme streamlines the application process, making it easier, simpler and consistent across the state, and better aligns with the COAG 2010 Australian Disability Parking Permit Scheme (ADPS).

 Benefits of the Scheme include:

  • temporary permits for 6, 12 or 24 months
  • permit length of 5 years for individuals
  • a permanent disability classification, so reassessments are not required for some people’s future permit renewals
  • a single and secure state-wide permit design that reduces the misuse of permits
  • the inclusion of occupational therapists as assessors, in addition to GPs
  • Double Time (green permits) and permits for organisations
