Use your Medical Permit

Your Medical Permit is a digital permit. You don't need to display any type of permit in your vehicle. Your permit will be active straight after your application has been approved and paid for.

  • Login to MiPermit portal, select ‘Manage Digital Permits. Choose the permit you want to update and 'Select Active Vehicle' to change the active vehicle on the permit.
  • Login to the MiPermit smartphone app, select ‘Permits’ from the menu, then choose the permit you want to update. Select 'Edit' to change the active vehicle on the permit.
