Do you have an invisible disability and have difficulty standing while using public transport?

You can get the badge or card if you have a range of disabilities, for example:

  • Fibromyalgia
  • Autism
  • Head injuries
  • Chronic pain
  • Poor balance
  • Multiple sclerosis

Contact your local TFI public transport operator to get a free badge and card.

You can use the badge on Dublin Bus, Bus Éireann, Iarnród Éireann — Irish Rail, Luas, Go-Ahead Ireland, and TFI Local Link services.
