Cost of Blue Badge
The cost of a Blue badge is £10.00. You'll only be charged for this if your application is approved.
Your application will be assessed by us and you will be notified of the outcome.
If your application is successful you'll be contacted for payment. This assessment should take no more than a maximum of 8 weeks.
Do not call or email us to chase your application because this can cause delays.
How long a Blue Badge is issued for
Blue Badges are normally issued for three years. If your Personal Independence Payment (PIP) award or Disability Living Allowance is for less than three years we can only issue a Blue Badge to the date of expiry which may be 6 months or 1 year.
Third party
You don't need to use a third party to apply for a blue badge. There is no charge to apply online and you should not need assistance from anyone unknown to you.
Blue Badges for organisations
If you think your organisation may qualify for an organisational badge, you can apply for one on our Blue Badge for organisations page.
