Municipality of Lelystad: applying for an EU parking card for people with disabilities

As a driver, you can receive a disabled parking card if you meet the following four conditions:

• You have had a walking impairment for a long time due to illness or medical issues (longer than 6 months).
• You cannot walk more than 100 meters, even when using aids such as a cane or walker.
• You have other serious health problems caused by illness or medical conditions.
• You must always use a wheelchair due to illness or medical conditions.

As a passenger, you can also receive a disabled parking card if you meet the conditions above and you cannot travel without assistance. This means you need help from the driver from door to door. Without this help, serious medical or psychological problems could occur.

• Application Form
•  Copy of identity document and/or driver’s license
•  Recent passport-sized photograph
•  Proof of payment showing that you have paid part of the application fee.

You can submit an application for a disabled parking permit in two ways:

• Digitally via the Municipality of Lelystad website;
• On paper at the information desk in the City Hall.

Please complete the application form for a European disabled parking permit in full and include all required attachments with your submission.

To process and assess your application, you must first pay the application fee.

You can make the payment via Tikkie Zakelijk. You will receive a payment link by email at the email address you provided in the application.

You can also pay the application fee at the cashier desk of the city shop in the town hall. You will first receive a receipt. With this receipt, you can make the payment at the cashier desk. Please report to the information desk in the town hall first.

When submitting your application, you first pay €106.30. This is the first part of the fee.

If you are eligible for the disabled parking card, you will pay the remaining amount when you collect the card:

• €26.55 for a card valid for 1 year 
• €42.55 for a card valid for 2 years 
• €58.45 for a card valid for 3 years 
• €74.70 for a card valid for 4 years 
• €90.35 for a card valid for 5 years €0.00 for a renewal without a medical examination (you still pay the initial €106.30)

If we reject your application or if you stop the application process, we will charge the first part of the fee.

Collecting the disabled parking card usually takes place at the same time as the medical assessment.

The legal period for processing your application is 8 weeks.

If you do not agree with our decision after reading the explanation in the rejection letter, you can file an objection.

You must submit your objection within six weeks. This period starts on the date stated on the decision letter.

Make sure you submit your objection on time. Otherwise, we cannot process it.

Send your notice of objection to: The Executive Board of the Municipality of Lelystad P.O. Box 91 8200 AB Lelystad The Netherlands

You may also submit a pro forma objection. This means that you inform us within six weeks that you wish to object, but that you will send the reasons for your objection at a later time.

In addition, we would like to receive the following information from you:

• your telephone number
• your email address

If someone else submits the objection on your behalf, you must provide an authorization.

It is also possible to submit your objection electronically. Go to www.lelystad.nl/bezwaar. You will also find more information there about submitting an objection.

Submitting an objection by email is not possible.

You can also ask the court for a quick, temporary decision. You can do this at the District Court of Midden‑Nederland, P.O. Box 16005, 3500 DA Utrecht.
