Senate Bill 792 requires these plates and placards to include the International Symbol of Access (ISA). To be eligible, veterans must have a vision or mobility-related disability, according to the Office of the Texas Governor. These veterans can also park for free at parking meters operated by governmental authorities other than the federal government.
As of January 1, 2022, you may apply for a disabled parking placard and/or disabled veteran license plate at the office of your local county tax assessor-collector:
1. For a disabled parking placard, download the Application for Persons with Disabilities Parking Placard and/or License Plate (Form VTR-214): https://www.txdmv.gov/sites/default/files/form_files/VTR-214.pdf.
2. For a disabled veteran license plate with or without the ISA, download the Application for Disabled Veteran License Plates and/or Parking Placard (Form VTR-615): https://www.txdmv.gov/sites/default/files/form_files/VTR-615.pdf.
3. Have your doctor or health care provider complete the Disability Statement section of the application or provide an original prescription.
4. Submit the completed application(s) and payment (if applicable) to your county tax office. Currently issued disabled parking placards will remain valid; however, the new requirements must be met at time of renewal.
