The MPS is designed to help people with genuine mobility disabilities and is not simply for convenience. You should only apply for an MPS card if you genuinely need one.
The links to the right provide detailed information about the new photo, medical certificate and proof of identity requirements for the MPS.
To apply for a card you'll need to:
- Download and complete an MPS application form (or pick one up from a motor registry).
- Have the medical certificate on the application form signed by a medical doctor confirming that you meet the eligibility criteria.
Notes: - If you have a Clinically Recognisable Disability (CRD) recorded by the RTA, you do not need a fresh medical certificate to renew your MPS card. Click the link to the right for more information.
- When applying for an Individual MPS card the medical certificate is valid for up to six months from the date the medical practitioner signed the form. The medical certificate for a Temporary MPS card is valid for up to three months from the date the medical practitioner signs the form.
- Attend a motor registry in person, unless the RTA has issued you with a photo exemption letter, allowing you to send a representative.
- Provide acceptable proof of identity documents of yourself and those of any representative.
- Pay the applicable fee. If you are eligible for a concession you will need to provide proof of your eligibility, for example a concession entitlement card.
- Hand in any existing card.
