Disabled Parking

    I just returned from a trip to Spain. I was pleasantly surprised by seeing the availability of ramps and disabled parking spaces.

    Even though we were just visiting, I brought my US issued disabled parking placard but I was very hesitant to use it and have our rental car towed or get a fine.

    Can anyone here please explain how you can use the disabled parking spaces? Is a permit or placard required? We are planning to return to Spain a few more times. Is it possible to apply for one there?

    Dear Alliejay

    Please check out this website. It should answer some of your questions.

    When we travelled in the US with my Swiss disability parking card we also put a “statment that we are from out of state” onto the dashboard and never faced a problem. Maybe you could do the same in Spain.
