Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether UK blue badges are recognised in the US; and whether he has had discussions with his US counterpart on recognition of blue badges in the US.
Not all countries offer recognition of UK issued Blue Badges and the US is one country that currently does not. Holders may either need to obtain a temporary badge for the duration of their stay, or may need to park in standard parking bays, and pay any applicable charges. UK Government advice to disabled travellers is always to check locally in the area of travel before parking.
