Are American handicap vehicle tags honored in Europe? Or are they given at car rentals w/validation?

Hi Jerry-

Don’t know the answer..but, I suspect not.

Note that we only speak for Switzerland, not “Europe.”

Ask your preferred rental car agency.

What benefit would you expect? I have not seen special parking spaces, for example. Perhaps that is a USA custom?

Yes, probably due to US having a bit more room to accommodate. No worries. Just wondering.

Hi Jerry,

I would check with your rental car agency. There are wheelchair parking spots in Switzerland but mostly at airports and rail stations. I didn’t see them too often outside of the larger towns but they are around. There are similar blue badges that are accepted here and around the EU.

A couple links I found:

You may need to get an EU badge but your rental agency should be able to shed more light on this.

Thanks Lucas-

I guess that I’ll have to keep my eyes open more.
