About applying online

When applying for an Older Person’s Bus Pass you won’t need to provide any proof of eligibility. If you're applying for a Disabled Person’s Bus Pass you will need to upload scanned (jpeg) copies of your evidence.

Find out what evidence you need to supply with your application. 

You can take a photo with a webcam or upload a recent digital photo you have stored on your computer.

If you have started an online application, and need to change a photo, print a rejected application or get password help log in to the online application system.

You can't apply online if you're applying for a pass because you would be refused a driving licence under section 92 of the Road Traffic Act 1988.

About applying in libraries

Hub libraries have specially trained staff who can put your application directly onto the system. You need to bring your eligibility evidence with you.

Other libraries and Gateways can you give you a form and forward completed ones to us with your eligibility evidence. They can't put them on the system.

About applying by phone

The advisor starts your application by taking your details but you'll need to send your eligibility evidence by post to complete the process.

How long until I get my pass?

It takes up to 15 working days as long as we've received all photographs and evidence. If we need more information such as a letter from your doctor it may take longer.
