Handicap Permits

Any person who requires the use of a handicapped parking space in the City of Los Santos, must apply for and hold a valid Handicap Identification Permit, as stipulated in the Handicap Identification of Vehicles Act of 2021 (YULIA ACT).

There are 2 types of Handicap Identification Permits issued by the Los Santos Department of Health and Welfare (DHW):

• Individual – issued for 5 years if you have permanent disability
• Temporary – issued for a minimum of one month and up to 6 months if you have a temporary disability.

To be eligible, you need to have mobility disability, which is defined by legislation as someone:

• Persons requiring the use of portable oxygen;
• Persons with limited use, or no use, of one or both legs;
• Persons with the inability to walk 200 feet without stopping;
• Persons with neuro-muscular dysfunction that severely limits mobility;
• Persons with Class III or IV cardiac condition (by standards of the American Heart Association);
• Persons with severe limitation in the ability to walk due to an arthritic, neurological or orthopedic condition(s);
• Persons with restriction(s) because of lung disease to such an extent that forced (respiratory) expiratory volume for one second, when measured by spirometry, is less than one liter, or the arterial oxygen tension is less than sixty mm/hg of room air at rest;
• Persons with any other physical or mental impairment not previously listed which constitutes an equal degree of disability, and imposes unusual hardship in the use of public transportation and prevents the person from getting around without great difficulty.

You're also eligible if you're legally blind.
