Disabled person's bus passes during coronavirus

You cannot apply for a new or replacement bus pass right now because of coronavirus.

We'll update this page when the situation changes.

If you've already applied

Transport Scotland stopped producing bus passes on 27 March. This is because the office closed due to coronavirus. If you applied after or around this date your application will not be processed.

Applications will be processed when the office reopens. It's not yet possible to confirm a date for this.

Using your bus pass during coronavirus

Transport Scotland is working with bus companies so you can still make essential travel.

The driver should still allow you to travel if you've:

• not been able to get a replacement for a lost, stolen or broken bus pass because of coronavirus
• not been able to renew a bus pass because of coronavirus
• a valid card which does not register on the ticket machine

Explain your situation to the bus driver.

Further enquiries during coronavirus

You need to contact your local council for questions about bus pass applications.

You can find more information about bus passes and concessionary travel during coronavirus on the Transport Scotland website.
