Public Transport & SmartPass

Can I get a SmartPass if my driving licence was refused or revoked for medical reasons in Northern Ireland?

Potentially yes. There is a Half Fare SmartPass category for people whose driving licence has been refused or revoked on medical grounds.

Northern Ireland's concessionary travel scheme includes a Half Fare SmartPass category for people whose driving licence has been refused or revoked on medical grounds.

Eligibility still depends on the scheme rules and supporting evidence.

The concession is tied to a licence being refused or revoked on specified medical grounds, so supporting evidence about the licensing decision may be needed when applying.

SmartPass is Northern Ireland's concessionary travel-card system. The exact entitlement depends on the pass type, eligibility category and journey, particularly for cross-border or all-Ireland travel.
