Temporary Placards are issued by the Chief of Police
To apply you must follow the steps below

  1. Download and complete the application here: https://www.state.nj.us/mvc/pdf/vehicles/SP-68.pdf
  2. Have a qualified medical practitioner certify that you are qualified for a temporary placard; see qualifications for medical certification information on N.J.M.V.C. website.
  3. Submit the completed application to the Delaware Township Police Department with a check or money made payable to “MVC” in the amount of $4.00.

Please note that as in the past temporary handicap placards are only valid for a 6-month period. The person with the disability may be re-certified by their qualified practitioner for an additional 6-month period (limited to one). Such recertification would require a new application and placard to be issued with a new expiration date. The qualified medical practitioner’s certification must be dated within 60 days of the application being submitted.
