Apply for a severely disabled person's ID card with or without token

People with severe disabilities can receive certain benefits and compensation for disadvantages.

If you have a two-color severely disabled person's pass on which certain characteristics are indicated, you can use this application to apply for a supplementary sheet and a token.

This entitles you to the following benefits:

• free transportation on local public transport or
• a reduction in vehicle tax

To be able to use free local public transport, you must purchase a token for half a year or a whole year against payment of a personal contribution. The personal contribution does not apply if you have certain characteristics or receive certain social benefits.

Alternatively, you can apply for a supplement without a token instead in order to receive a reduction in vehicle tax.

For people with certain characteristics, there is the option of using the supplementary sheet with a token to claim both a reduction in vehicle tax and free local public transport.

If your supplementary sheet is damaged or you have lost it, you can apply for a replacement.
