New York

New York

The State of New York has two Parking Permit schemes: a New York State permit and a New York City (NYC) permit (issued exclusively to people who live, work or attend school in NYC)


Parking spaces

 

Those reserved for a Parking Permit holder are marked with the wheelchair symbol.

 

Do not park if the space is marked with someone's name or a licence plate number.

 

Do not park on the striped area adjacent to a disabled person parking space – it is there to allow a wheelchair user access to and from the vehicle.

 

Where you may use your Parking Permit

 

New York State Parking Permit holder

You may not use your Parking Permit on NYC streets, but it can be used in NYC car parks.

 

You may use your Parking Permit in most states of the USA, and in many other countries around the world.

 

Look at the entry for the State or the country you intend visiting to see if your Parking Permit can be used.

 

Visitor to New York

Visitor from another USA state – you may use your Parking Permit in the State of New York, including NYC car parks, but not on a NYC street.

 

Visitor from abroad – we are currently unable to say whether or not your Parking Permit may be used in New York State (or NYC car parks) - ask locally if you are entitled to the parking concessions shown opposite.

 

 

Parking on roads

 

You may park in a parking space marked with the international wheelchair symbol (but not in NYC - see Where you may use your Parking Permit above).

 

Only a NYC Parking Permit holder is eligible for parking concessions on NYC streets.

 

Parking in car parks


You may park in a parking space marked with the international wheelchair symbol, including those  in NYC.


Parking concessions in car parks may vary - check the car park notices or ask an attendant.
