what we offer.

An accessible parking permit allows individuals with mobility challenges to park in designated parking spots across the province. A healthcare professional must apply for an accessible parking permit on your behalf.

The Parking Permit Program is regulated by Manitoba Transportation & Infrastructure and administered by Manitoba Possible. A parking permit costs $15. There are two types of parking permits: 

Permanent Permits

Permanent permits are valid for three years. After that, they need to be renewed. To renew, you don’t need to see a healthcare provider. Instead, Manitoba Possible will contact you four to six weeks prior to your expiry to start the renewal process. 

Temporary Permits 

Temporary permits are issued based on your healthcare provider’s prescribed time period. When your temporary permit expires, you need to visit your healthcare provider to renew it. They will submit a new application on your behalf. 

Processing time for parking permits is approximately 10 business days from the date your healthcare provider submits your application to when we contact you for payment options and further details.

Motorcycle Option
Accessible parking permit stickers are now available for motorcycle license plates. Applications can be made through your healthcare provider.

who is eligible.

Individuals who are “unable to walk more than 50 metres unassisted without great difficulty or danger to health and safety” are eligible to obtain a parking permit. A healthcare professional must apply on your behalf. Contact your primary healthcare provider (doctor, nurse practitioner, chiropractor, occupational therapist or physiotherapist) to begin the online application process.

To obtain a parking permit you must have:

  • a health condition that meets eligibility requirements 

  • authorization from a regulated healthcare practitioner 

Individuals are eligible for a permit even if they don't own a vehicle. The permit can be hung in the rear-view mirror of any car as long as the registered permit holder is also in the car.
