walk without assistance for more than 200 metres (218 yards) in eight minutes or less
without great difficulty or danger to his or her health or safety. His or her condition

her for a permit. Applicants can apply even if they do not own a car or have a driver's
licence.

transportation services to disabled persons may be issued a number of permits equal

How does a visitor to Ontario obtain a Disabled Person Parking Permit?
These permits ensure that people with disabilities have a unique entitlement to
designated parking throughout Ontario (specific parking privileges vary depending on
the municipality or parking lot owner). The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) issues
disabled person parking permits to out-of-province visitors for a maximum of six
months.
You may apply for a disabled person parking permit if you have a physical disability
that prevents you from walking unassisted for long distances. In most cases, a visitor
may obtain a permit if they prove that they hold a currently valid permit, number
plates, marker or device, bearing the international symbol for access for the disabled,
issued by the visitor's home jurisdiction, or if they prove that they are from another
jurisdiction and are disabled.
You may apply for a disabled person parking permit even if you do not own a car or
have a driver's licence. These permits are issued to individuals, not vehicles. A
"portable permit" issued to disabled individuals ensures their ease of access from any
vehicle at any time.
Applications for disabled person parking permits may be obtained at any Driver and
Vehicle Licence Office in Ontario. You can also obtain permit applications by
contacting MTO INFO, toll-free, at 1-800-268-4686. Upon receiving the
application, complete section one, have a doctor complete section two, and mail it to
MTO, P.O. Box 9200, Kingston, Ontario, K7L 5K4. The application form can also
be returned to any Driver and Vehicle Licence office.
There is no charge for disabled person parking permits. MTO is doing all it can to
promote the mobility and equality of people with disabilities throughout Ontario.
Thank You,
Max
