If you are not automatically eligible, you may be able to get a Blue Badge under certain other circumstances
If you have a physical disability or health condition that affects your walking ability, or have a hidden illness such as dementia, autism or Parkinson's Disease, you may be able to get a Blue Badge to help you park closer to the places you want to go. A Blue Badge holder travelling either as a driver or passenger can park for free in disabled parking bays and you may be exempt from other parking restrictions.
The simple piece of blue plastic only costs £20 in Scotland and is valid for three years. There's no set processing times for new applications or renewals, but on average last year it was taking up to 12 weeks. Your local council processes Blue Badge applications and sets the price - they will be able to advise how long it might take.
Using your badge in other parts of the UK You can use your Blue Badge in most other countries. If you're using your Blue Badge in England or Wales you will need to use a parking clock - this comes with your Blue Badge. Latest Blue Badge stories What do I need to apply?
