Paid parking rules for disabled people. Moscow parking on social networks

03.11.2019 -

New rules In 2018, who has the right to park in a disabled parking lot? Today, the driver of a vehicle with the identification sign “Disabled” is required to carry and present to the traffic police officer a certificate of disability. If a vehicle is driven by several drivers, and not all of them are disabled, a quick-removable identification plate must be installed on the vehicle. In accordance with the traffic rules, benefits for paid parking for disabled people apply only to disabled people of groups 1 and 2, as well as to any group when transporting disabled children. Thus, a driver without health limitations also has the right to purchase and install a “Disabled Person” sign, but he no longer has the right to stop in parking lots for the disabled. If a certificate of disability is presented, which is not necessarily issued in the name of the driver, no fine will be issued.

Preferential parking for disabled people

Attention

Signage area If we're talking about about the “Parking for the Disabled” sign, then its effect applies to all places that are located near it, but in most cases a group of similar signs is duplicated by markings on each of the places, which are carried out in the prescribed manner and in accordance with the model. Considering that in some parking lots a set - a parking sign + an additional sign are located at the entrance to the parking lot, then you need to look for specialized places as close as possible to the entrance to the building, where they should be located according to the established rules.

The width of the curb should start from 90 cm, the curb should be painted yellow, installed in the corner of the parking lot. What is the size of a parking space for the disabled according to GOST? The width of the parking space for disabled people is 3.5 m, which is one meter more than the space for a regular vehicle. This is caused by the need to fully open the door when the driver or passenger exits; such dimensions allow you to avoid creating inconvenience. When allocating two or more parking spaces for disabled people, they should be located side by side, which will double the free space between vehicles.

The exit to the sidewalk (if available) is equipped with a special ramp, convenient for exiting onto the road or parking lot.

Paid parking rules and benefits for people with disabilities in 2018

As it was before Until recently, the use of parking for disabled people was not clearly enshrined in legislation; the text of the resolution did not mention the need to have a certificate of disability; there was no information that the right to install a “Disabled Person” sign does not apply to cars transporting healthy citizens. The sign could be set to any vehicle, in which disabled people are systematically or periodically transported. At the same time, the traffic police inspector had the right to punish anyone who stopped in a parking space designated for disabled people, regardless of the presence or absence of a disability certificate. Although, according to the law, such a certificate was not included in the list of documents that the driver must present to the inspector.
The fine for illegal parking was only 200 rubles.

Features of parking for disabled people

Fine for illegal use of parking spaces In any region of the country, drivers are subject to a fine if they take a parking space for a disabled person without grounds or documentary evidence. Its amount is 5,000 rubles, and it is assigned only after the inspector checks the documents or discovers clear signs of a violation. If the driver is not nearby, then a law enforcement officer can call a tow truck and record the loading process with the help of witness statements or record it on video, so that if damage is detected, the driver can verify that there were no violations of the evacuation procedure.
Recent innovations after the reform The need for documents confirming disability arose only after the reform of the document verification procedure.

How to apply for a preferential parking permit

Where can a disabled person park? Parking spaces for people with disabilities are marked with special markings and an identification sign “Disabled”. The width of the parking space for disabled people is greater than the space for regular vehicles - 3.5 meters. This is done so that the driver or passenger can freely open the car door when leaving.

Info

According to the rules traffic, the effect of sign 6.4 (“Parking”) together with plate 8.17 (“Disabled Persons”) applies to motorized strollers and cars driven by disabled people of group I or II, or transporting disabled people and disabled children. It is important that you always have with you a document confirming your disability. This has been a mandatory requirement since February 2016, when Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 23 of January 21, 2016 “On Amendments to the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation” came into force.

Who else can use the demon paid parking There is another category of citizens who can take advantage of such a benefit as parking for the disabled in Moscow. The rules permit the use of these places by those transporting persons belonging to this group. In this case, it does not matter whether this is done by a specialized person, equipped for transporting persons with disabilities. disabilities, or a simple car.
Drivers who are not disabled, but regularly transport them or accompany disabled children, may install a sign on their vehicle and occupy a space designated for parking vehicles belonging to disabled citizens. This is only possible during the transportation of a disabled person who has supporting documents with him.

Is it possible for a disabled person to park in all paid parking areas?

Responsibility for violating the rules How much is the fine for parking in a disabled space in 2018? Just a few years ago, the fine was only 200 rubles, and as a result, drivers abandoned their cars anywhere. Despite the increase in the amount of penalties, car owners continue to violate the rules; in this regard, the issue of tightening penalties is being considered, including deprivation of a driver’s license and the initiation of legal proceedings. Today, the following penalties are legislated:

5 thousand rubles - for an individual;
10 - 30 thousand rubles. - for an individual;
30-50 thousand rubles. - for an official.

In addition to the fine, transportation of the vehicle to the impound area is also provided; the vehicle can be returned only after the fine has been paid in full.

Legislative framework the federal law"ABOUT social protection disabled people in the Russian Federation" dated November 24, 1995 No. 181-FZ obliges parking lot owners to allocate parking space specifically for people with benefits. According to its standards, at least 10% of total number places are planned for preferential users. Code of administrative offenses Russian Federation (Administrative Code of the Russian Federation) involves punitive measures against physical and legal entities who do not comply with regulatory requirements regarding parking for the disabled. Download for viewing and printing Federal Law of November 24, 1995

No. 181-FZ - On social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation Who benefits from benefits K preferential categories include drivers directly driving vehicles of all disability groups, as well as vehicles transporting disabled people, including disabled children.

The problem of free parking for disabled people is relevant not only in megacities, but also in small towns in Russia. On the one hand, benefits are guaranteed by the state, on the other, the flow of vehicles is constantly growing, and parking spaces are constantly in short supply.

According to (dated November 24, 1995), the owner of a paid parking lot is obliged to provide a certain area for places for persons with limited physical capabilities. This area must be no less than 10% of the total parking space. In case of violation of these norms, administrative liability is provided.

Regulatory framework and conditions for receiving benefits

Many people are interested in which disabled people are entitled to free parking and what needs to be done to receive this benefit. The conditions for granting the right to free parking for disabled people in Moscow and any other city are no different. Disabled people of all 3 groups, without exception, have the right to a free parking space. The factor of geographical location and registration does not matter.

The immediate basis for the implementation of the benefit is a certificate of disability, as well as a parking permit.

A person entitled to free parking due to a disability must fulfill the following conditions:

draw up a document indicating a parking permit;
install a special identification sign on the car;
take one of the allocated parking spaces.

Important! According to regulatory regulations, one parking permit is required per citizen.

Where and how to apply for a benefit

You can obtain permission for free parking at any multifunctional center (MFC) by following a number of steps:

Collect Required documents(a detailed list is given in the next paragraph).
Visit the MFC.
Fill out the application form in the prescribed form.
Wait for the result of the application review.

Having received a notification that you have been granted free parking benefits, you must register the car for which the parking permit is issued in special database data, which records basic information on the subject of preferential preferences.

In particular, the following information is entered into this register:

number of the preferential parking certificate and its validity period;
last name, first name, patronymic of the disabled person or his legal representative;
registration address, contact details;
make and license plate number of the car;
insurance information;
disability category of the beneficiary.

Advice! All data is thoroughly checked, so the information must be provided in full and accurately.

Required documents

Depending on whether the disabled person directly applies for the benefit or the person representing him, the package of documents required for registration of preferential parking is somewhat different.

If the benefit is applied for by a disabled citizen himself, he must provide the following to the MFC:

passport;
certificate of disability;
certificate of compulsory pension insurance (SNILS).

When applying for free parking for children with disabilities, a birth certificate is required instead of the applicant's passport. The legal representative must present a passport or other document confirming his authority (a priori, parents are considered the legal representative, but other cases are possible).

If a car was provided to a disabled person as part of a social protection program, it is necessary to provide the MFC with a certificate issued by the relevant authority.

Deadlines for reviewing documents

According to the norms, established by law, the period for consideration of the application and documents submitted for registration of parking benefits at the MFC is 10 days. The applicant will be notified of the final decision in writing, as well as in other ways specified when filling out the application.

Modern technologies allow people with disabilities to contact the MFC via the Internet. To do this, you need to go to the center’s website and register in the database. After this, you should follow a simple algorithm of the prescribed actions, enter the necessary information and wait for a response by email.

How long does the parking discount last?

for 1 year - in accordance with the rules for registering disability of groups 2 and 3,
indefinitely - for disabled people of group 1.

Disabled people of groups 2 and 3 are required to undergo the procedure after a year medical and social examination, establishing the presence of physical limitations, i.e. must confirm disability. Until the status is confirmed, the benefits are suspended (interrupted).

Advice! It is important to remember that the right to receive parking preferences applies to one car per disabled person. If you change your vehicle (most often, a car), you will have to re-register your documents.

Features of the practical use of the benefit

When transporting a disabled person, using the right to free parking must take into account some basic rules:

Preferential parking spaces are marked with special signs. If a disabled person or the person responsible for their transportation occupies a space that does not have special markings, parking is paid on a general basis.
Parking benefits for families raising a disabled child are provided for only one vehicle.
The legal representative of a disabled person can be parents, relatives or other persons whose powers are legally secured.

Advice! It is better to issue a parking permit for a specialized car, and if this is not possible, then for a car that is maximally adapted for transporting a person with disabilities. physical capabilities.

Given the fairly high cost of parking in Moscow, for example, getting free parking for a disabled person is really very important. This not only saves money, but also makes it more convenient to get to your destination, which ultimately improves the standard of living of people with disabilities and improves the logistics of the city. Often special passengers or drivers require more time or special conditions(for example, a large space in front of the doors for entering a car) to start moving. If such a car is forced to occupy the usual, and not preferential seat in a parking lot, this often makes movement difficult. That’s why it’s so important to follow parking lot markings.

Penalties associated with violations

The rights of people with disabilities are protected by federal legislation, and any violation of them entails administrative liability.

Let's look at the main sanctions associated with violations of regulations regarding preferential parking for people with disabilities.

Car parking, especially in megacities, is now a problem. You have to pay for space for your car. However, citizens with health limitations often do not have free money. Therefore, they are legally allocated free parking for the disabled.

The regulatory framework related to paying for parking is changing rapidly.

Legislative framework

Who does the benefit apply to?

Preferential categories include drivers directly driving vehicles of all disability groups, as well as vehicles transporting disabled people, including disabled children. A vehicle applying for a free parking space must display a “Disabled Person” identification badge, issued for personal use by authorized executors at the federal level.

For the practical implementation of the benefit, it is necessary to obtain a parking permit for the car. The rule for providing it looks like this:

one disabled person = one car.

How the benefit is issued

Let's consider the algorithm for obtaining a parking certificate using a metropolitan example. For Moscow drivers, the parking problem is perhaps more pressing than for residents of other cities. To obtain the treasured document, you must contact any multifunctional center (MFC).

A disabled person's parking permit is provided to all citizens of the Russian Federation, regardless of registration.

Features of using parking benefits

As in any other area, the issue under consideration has its own nuances. Let's clarify the most common mistakes that lead to problems.

Parking spaces for beneficiaries are marked with a special sign. That is, if there are benefits, it is necessary to park the car only in the designated area.
If a disabled driver (the person transporting him) occupies a space that is not equipped with a special sign, then you will have to pay for parking on a general basis.
Families raising a child with disabilities can apply for a parking benefit for only one car. As a rule, this is a vehicle owned by the parent.
The legal representatives of people with disabilities are their relatives, parents and other persons registered by law.

Fines for using a disabled parking space

February 28, 2017, 23:14 Oct 5, 2019 02:04

In February 2016, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 23 of January 21, 2016 “On Amendments to the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation” was officially published and came into force. This document radically changed the parking procedure for disabled people and persons transporting disabled people. From now on, they must have on their vehicle not only a special sign, but also a document confirming their disability.

As it was before

Until recently in regulatory documents there were certain omissions that allowed unscrupulous drivers to enjoy benefits that were not intended for them. The traffic rules, in particular, stated that if there is a sign 8.17, the effect of sign 6.4 “Parking (parking space)” applies only to motorized wheelchairs and cars that have the “Disabled” identification sign installed. In other words, by installing such a sign, the driver could park in places intended for disabled people. Regardless of whether the driver is disabled or not!

Without the “Disabled Person” sign, the right to preferential parking did not arise, although such a sign was not mandatory for traffic. In the “Basic provisions for the admission of vehicles...” it was said that, at the driver’s request, the identification mark “Disabled” “in the form of a square” can be installed on the vehicle. yellow color with a side of 150 mm and a black image of the symbol of road sign 8.17 - in front and behind motor vehicles driven by disabled people of groups I and II, transporting such disabled people or disabled children.”

There is no mention in this text that the installation of a “Disabled Person” sign is only permitted for disabled drivers. This sign could be installed on any car in which “disabled people are transported” - systematically or occasionally. And there was not a word about a disability certificate.

At the same time, anyone who stopped in a parking lot intended for the disabled could be punished by a traffic police inspector, regardless of whether the driver had a certificate of disability or not. Although here is a paradox: according to the law, the inspector did not even have the right to demand this certificate from the driver.

The list of required documents that the driver must have with him (Section 2.1.1 of the Traffic Regulations) did not include such a certificate. Until 2011, the fine for parking in a disabled person’s space was only 200 rubles. It is clear that such an amount could not stop the scammers, so the list of documents was expanded to include a certificate of disability, and the administrative penalty was increased significantly.

New parking rules for disabled people

So, now, according to clause 2.1 of the traffic rules, the driver of a motor vehicle is obliged to carry with him and, at the request of police officers, hand over to them for verification a document confirming the fact of disability, in the case of driving a vehicle on which the identification sign “Disabled” is installed.

That is, you can take advantage of additional “benefits” when parking your car and driving under signs 3.2 “No movement” and 3.3 “No motor vehicles” from February 2016 only if the “Disabled” identification sign is installed on the car.

If the car is used by several drivers, and not all of them are disabled, you need to purchase a quick-release identification badge, for example, on suction cups. And do not forget that in accordance with the traffic rules, benefits apply only to disabled people of groups I and II, as well as to any group when transporting disabled children.

Of course, a physically healthy but dishonest driver can still easily purchase a “Disabled” sign and install it on his car. But he will no longer be able to calmly stop in disabled parking lots. At least in theory. The traffic police inspector has the right to demand that the driver present a certificate of disability, not necessarily his own. If there is one, then the driver is not issued a fine.

What about in practice?

True, questions have arisen, the answers to which can only be given by law enforcement practice. If a disabled person is actually being transported by car, can the driver leave the car in the parking lot marked with sign 6.4 with sign 8.17. It looks like there are options here. After all, even if the driver rightfully occupies a parking space for the disabled, he now must always have a certificate with him or medical certificate, since a “Disabled Person” warning sign pasted on the glass is not proof of the right to park.

They brought, say, a disabled person to a clinic, where he may have to show the doctors his ID or certificate. If the driver remains in the car, then he does not have a document confirming the right to park. Therefore, it is better to leave the car and return to the wheel only with a disabled person. What if a disabled person does not need a certificate, for example, in a shopping center? Does he have the right to hand over the document to the driver? And won’t the inspector have any doubts that the car is actually carrying a disabled person, and not just his papers?

This is perhaps an almost insoluble problem. The driver brought the disabled person to the station, parked in the parking lot for the disabled and went to accompany him to help him board the train. Upon his return, the inspector asks him to present his documents, but the disabled person has already left by train. If a “Disabled Person” sign is installed on the car, the driver faces punishment, since he does not have documents confirming his disability. And if the sign is removed, the car can be towed. Therefore, you will have to take care of a second accompanying person or, after disembarking the disabled person, remove the sign and move the car to a general parking lot.

Many people ask whether in such a situation it is possible to have a notarized copy of disability documents with them. But the lawyers just shake their heads sadly. Unfortunately, according to the traffic rules, police officers need to submit for verification “a document confirming the fact of the establishment of disability,” and not a copy of it. After all, many copies, even notarized ones, can be made, but a disabled person can only be transported in one car.

Thus, we have to state:

The driver can hang up the “Disabled Person” sign and enjoy benefits only if the disabled person is nearby and agrees to give the driver a document confirming the disability.

People with disabilities, but without obvious signs disability, we must keep in mind that traffic police inspectors will now ask them to confirm their status. If you don’t have any documents with you, then after imposing an administrative penalty, it is pointless to prove your special rights in court. To have the right to park, you must have the certificate with you.

It is also unclear why sign 6.4, together with plate 8.17, applies only to motorized strollers and cars. If the driver is a disabled person of groups I and II or transports disabled people on a motorcycle or, say, an ATV, then he has no right to enjoy privileges.

What is the penalty for a fake certificate?

What to do with those who purchased fake certificates or disability certificates? Such “fake” pieces of paper can still be bought in the underground passage or at the station. Most likely, the inspector will not “punch” your documents through the database. But if he has doubts and wants to check the authenticity of the submitted certificates, then the driver faces not only an administrative fine.

The fine itself, not for lack of documents, but for illegally installing a “Disabled” sign and for driving a vehicle with such a sign, amounts to 5,000 rubles for citizens. But a more serious punishment for the use of knowingly forged documents is provided for by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - a large fine or even arrest for up to six months.

Frequent cases in private parking lots

Unfortunately, real disabled people also have problems. Thus, in non-state parking lots, spaces for disabled people are provided for by the law “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation.” The capital also has Moscow Law No. 3 of January 17, 2001 “On ensuring unimpeded access for people with disabilities to social, transport and engineering infrastructure facilities of the city of Moscow” (as amended on November 21, 2007).

It says, in particular: “In parking lots and in places where vehicles are parked, regardless of the form of ownership of the parking lots, up to 10 percent of the spaces (but not less than one space) most convenient for entry and exit should be allocated for parking special vehicles disabled people. Parking areas are equipped with special signs. Disabled people, as well as persons transporting them, in cases where disabled people have contraindications for driving vehicles, use parking spaces for special vehicles free of charge.”

However, there are complaints that when entering a shopping center, the driver is asked to take a parking card, and when leaving, it turns out that the electronic machine cannot recognize disability documents, and the security guards do not even know that disabled people have the right to free parking...

Features of metropolitan life

There are peculiarities when using parking spaces intended for parking vehicles of disabled people in paid parking zones, which are organized in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In Moscow, for example, you additionally need to obtain a preferential parking permit for a disabled person (see Help). It is issued at the MFC (multifunctional centers) or on the portal website Government services Moscow. In this case, the data of the disabled person’s car is entered into the parking register.

Payment for parking in Moscow is controlled by mobile photo and video recording systems that run along city parking lots. They can check online whether the data about a car parked in a space for disabled people is entered into the Parking Register as a car for a disabled person. If not, a fine will be generated automatically.

Parking permits for a disabled person give the right to free 24-hour parking in places marked with sign 8.17 “Disabled”, as well as marking 1.24.3. In all other parking spaces, parking is provided on a general basis (for a fee).

Our information

Parking permits for a disabled person can be issued for a car:

owned by a disabled person/legal representative of a disabled child;
previously issued in accordance with medical indications free of charge for the use of social protection authorities;
belonging to other persons transporting disabled people, with the exception of vehicles used to provide paid services for the transportation of passengers if a disabled person has contraindications to driving.

For registration Parking permit need to submit:

statement;
passport (birth certificate for disabled children under 14 years of age);
insurance certificate of compulsory pension insurance of the applicant (SNILS).

If the place of residence of a disabled person is not on the territory of the city of Moscow and if he has not previously applied to the Department of Social Protection of the Population of the City of Moscow, then he must present a document certifying the right of the disabled person to a benefit (a certificate from a medical and social examination establishing disability or an extract from certificate of examination of a citizen recognized as disabled).

This initiative is connected with the “accessible environment” program carried out throughout the country.

Who does the sign apply to?

All designated parking spaces for people with disabilities must be marked with a special sign. "Disabled Parking" sign.

They can be used:

disabled persons of the first and second groups;
citizens who transport adults or minors with disabilities.

Persons with group 3 disabilities do not have the right to use such parking spaces, regardless of the fact that they receive a disability pension.

At the same time, a sticker on the glass of a vehicle, on the one hand, is not at all necessary to indicate status, and on the other hand, it cannot in any way officially confirm that a disabled person is in the car.

The driver, whether a citizen of the first or second group, or simply the driver transporting him, in order to use a special parking space must have documents that confirm this right, namely:

Certificate of incapacity for work.
Certificate from a medical institution confirming incapacity for work.

Typically, such cars are equipped with special stickers located on the windshield or rear window to alert other road users that a person with a disability is in the car.

But only a certificate of disability can confirm that the sign was placed legally.

Number of seats

According to the rules for constructing parking lots, including apartment building, it is mandatory to provide free parking spaces for disabled people, and such spaces must be at least ten percent of total number ().

Most often, an area for cars with disabilities is set up closer to the exit and is marked with special markings and appropriate signs.

Near some institutions where the flow of people with musculoskeletal disorders is quite large (clinics, social services etc.), at least 20% of the number of parking spaces for disabled people from the total parking area must be allocated.

The rules do not establish where exactly such zones should be located and exactly how many parking spaces there should be; each owner has the right to determine their number, the main condition is that their number should not be below the established minimum level.

According to Art. 15 of Law No. 181-FZ “On Social Protection...” of November 24, 1995, each organization, regardless of its organizational and legal form, is obliged to provide persons with disabilities with unhindered access to the facility. The same rule applies in public transport.

Violation of these requirements, according to, entails administrative liability in the form of a fine:

for officials the fine is from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles;
For organizations, the fine has been increased to 30 thousand - 50 thousand rubles.

Decor

Compared to public parking spaces, parking spaces for disabled citizens are arranged somewhat differently.

According to the rules in Moscow in 2019, the width of the parking lot increases by one meter and is at least 3.5 meters.

This is understandable: many people use wheelchairs and they must have a place both for unloading it from the car and for further travel between vehicles.

Typically, all parking spaces are located one after the other, this is both more convenient and allows you to increase the distance between two cars, which increases the possibility of maneuver.

All designated places are located no more than 50 meters from the establishment.

The special marking is a copy of a road sign painted on the asphalt with yellow paint. Parking for disabled people is designated according to traffic regulations using special markings and a “Parking for disabled people” sign.

At the same time, a sign is installed next to such a sign, notifying that this zone is intended only for parking cars of persons with disabilities, or for parking vehicles transporting such citizens, including special vehicles.

Documentation

Since 2019, the rules for installing a “Disabled Person” sign on a vehicle have changed; this has become possible only after receiving a disability certificate.

Also, you can take advantage of free parking or other benefits provided to citizens with limited mobility only if you have such a certificate.

If the certificate is missing, traffic police officers can not only remove the sign from the car, but also fine its owner.

This tightening of requirements is due to the fact that some motorists illegally use the sign when trying to leave their car in parking areas for disabled citizens.

In addition to specially equipped parking spaces, persons with disabilities or their representatives have the right to ignore certain road signs.

Namely:

Vehicle movement is prohibited;

Figure 1. Sign 3.3 “Vehicle movement is prohibited”
Parking is prohibited (Fig. 2);
Figure 2. Sign 3.28 “Parking prohibited”
Signs 3.29 and 3.30, parking on odd (even) days is prohibited (Fig. 3).
Figure 3. Sign “Parking on odd (even) days is prohibited.

All these rules apply to citizens who transport disabled people in their cars, but the requirement to have the necessary documents on hand also applies to these cars.

Penalty for parking in a disabled space

Not every person with disabilities is able to get behind the wheel of a car independently. Most often, they are transported by special vehicles, or they use the services of a taxi or relatives or friends.

When transporting such people, vehicle owners have the right to install a special sign on their car and use parking spaces for parking. disabled persons, but only if the passenger has a document that confirms his status.

If these requirements are not met, the violator will be fined or other types of punishment will be applied to him.

Table 1. Types of punishment for people with disabilities.

How to check resolution

In 2013, Moscow began recording the issuance of parking permits for persons with disabilities in a special register maintained by the State Public Institution “Administrator of the Moscow Parking Space”.

The following data is required to be included in this document:
- number and validity period of the permit;
- personal data of the applicant, for a disabled child, data of his legal representative;
- contact details and residential address;
- information about the car in which a citizen with disabilities travels;
- vehicle make;
- vehicle registration number;
- SNILS;
- benefit category.
All information provided in the document is carefully checked to prevent abuse.

To park freely in paid parking lots, or to park cars in spaces for disabled people, everyone who qualifies for the benefit must obtain a parking permit.

To do this, you need to visit the MFC or go to the website of the public services portal in Moscow (official website page address: pgu.mos.ru). The site is intended only for working with residents of the capital.

When visiting the MFC you must have the following documents with you:
- statement;
- passport or birth certificate (for a child under 14 years of age);
- SNILS;
- in cases where a disabled person does not live in Moscow, but he needs to frequently visit various metropolitan authorities, to register a car he additionally presents a certificate that states his right to a benefit, this can be a certificate from VTEK recognizing him as a person with disabilities or an extract from the inspection report.
The permit is valid until the first day of the month following the date until which the incapacity for work was determined. For example, if the certificate is valid until March 21, 2019, then the permit will be valid until April 1 of the same year.
