Handicap Tags & Placards

Permanent Disability

Individuals may apply for a disability tag/placard using the Mississippi Disabled Parking Application Form (PDF). This form must be certified by the applicant's physician or nurse practitioner as being permanently disabled. Permanently disabled individuals may receive two disability tags and two placards.

Temporary Disability

Individuals may apply for a temporary disability placard (red) using the Mississippi Disabled Parking Application Form (PDF). The form must be certified by the applicant's physician or nurse practitioner as being temporarily disabled. This placard is issued in six-month increments.

Both Cases

Additionally, in both cases, the owner of a vehicle who has a disabled child, parent, or spouse living with them may be issued a disabled license tag/placard. The applicant's child, parent, or spouse must have certification from a licensed physician or nurse practitioner.
