Does anyone know if you are OK to use a UK disabled badge in NZ?
I know I've been to a country somewhere that allowed you to use a UK one.
MIL is coming over & has one & would be a great help if she could use in it hilly Wellington
Thank you

Thanks Ian for the quick reply, bummer, I've been told the hill to the zoo is quite steep (haven't managed to get there myself yet) & was hoping the
in-laws would take my daughter
Oh well
Thanks Sophia sounds promising
I got one for my Dad when he came over - I contacted CCS and explained his situation, and they sent me one by return post.

I know it is canterbury's but they can point you in right direction and if you had problem with your areas', go back to canterbury's and ask if can get it from them because the pass is NOT restriction to canterbury, can be used in anywhere in NZ as my grandma took it with her to my sister's in Auckland after stay with us.
We able to get the pass for our grandma but on one condition that we must post it back to canterbury's once our grandma has left for UK.
Tip from me: READ the rules because it is different to UK's rules so I don't want you caught the wrong side of law
Good Luck!
That's a great link.
From this though, it does look like the information I was given was basically correct regarding needing it to be certified by a doctor?How do I get a Permit?
All applications have to be certified by a doctor. Your doctor, medical specialist or nearest CCS Disability Action branch has application forms.
