Open ProvincesAccessible parking permit in British Columbia: how to apply
How to get an accessible (disability) parking permit in British Columbia: who certifies, where to apply and what it costs, from the official pages.
Accessible parking permit
Run by SPARC BC: get the form, have a physician (with an MSP number) complete their section, then send it with the fee by mail or email to permits@sparc.bc.ca. Permanent permits are valid 3 years; temporary ones 1 to 12 months. SPARC pages disagree on the fee and processing time, so confirm with them.
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. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
