In an effort to help provide its customers with improved service and increased convenience, PennDOT announced today that customers who have a Person with Disabilities Parking Placard can now have the option to renew, receive a replacement or update their address on their permanent Persons with Disabilities Parking Placard online from the comfort of their home.
“This new online service is an added convenience for customers who need accessible parking,” said PennDOT’s Deputy Secretary for Driver and Vehicles Services Kurt Myers, in a press release. “The commonwealth also benefits from savings from costs associated with mailing products and notices that a product has been renewed.”
“Making this service available online is a positive move for all Pennsylvanians who seek a Person with Disabilities Parking Placard,” said Lisa Biggica of UniqueSource Products & Services. “It is vital that this important accessibility service is itself easily accessible and convenient to obtain. It just makes sense for the more than two million Pennsylvanian adults living with a disability.”
To renew a placard online or to obtain additional information on services provided, including how to obtain a placard, please visit the Person with Disabilities Information page on the Driver and Vehicle Services website.
Placard holders will continue receiving a renewal form by mail approximately 60 days before their expiration.
Customers may obtain various other driver and vehicle products and services online through PennDOT’s Driver and Vehicle Services website, including all forms, publications, and driver training manuals.
Driver and vehicle online services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and include driver’s license, photo ID, and vehicle registration renewals; driver-history services; changes of address; driver license and vehicle registration restoration letters; ability to pay driver license or vehicle insurance restoration fee; driver license and photo ID duplicates; and driver exam scheduling. There are no additional fees for using online services.
