Accessible parking permit in Alberta: how to apply
How to get an accessible (disability) parking permit in Alberta: who certifies, where to apply and what it costs, from the official pages.
Accessible parking permit
Fill out the application, have an authorized health care provider approve it (within 6 months of signing), then bring it with ID and proof of Alberta address to a registry agent. Out-of-province placards are accepted for visitors. The province is reviewing the program, so renewal rules may change.
A health professional must certify the mobility limitation almost everywhere. Fees, validity and who may certify change: confirm on the official page before applying. Permits from other provinces are generally honoured when you visit. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source.
