The expiration of the hang tag will be determined by the impairment status listed on the certification. Lifelong impairments receive a two year hang tag. Recertification will not be required upon renewal. Permanent impairments receive a two year hang tag. Recertification is required upon renewal.
Temporary impairments receive a hang tag that is valid for one year from the date of issuance.
In the event the mobility impaired person is severely handicapped and is physically unable to come into the Motor Vehicle Office to have a picture taken that portion of the certification must be completed by the physician. The completed form must be taken to the Motor Vehicle Office, along with a color photograph of that individual. This photograph should be relatively small. The person obtaining the hang tag must know pertinent information about the mobility impaired person. A replacement hang tag can be issued if a current hang tag is lost or stolen.
