Who can get an older person's bus pass

You can get a free bus pass if you’re aged 60 or over and live in Scotland.

You can apply for your bus pass up to 2 weeks before you turn 60.

You do not need to renew an older person's bus pass because it does not expire.

If you're over 60 and disabled

You can choose between the older person’s bus pass and the disabled person's bus pass.

A disabled person's bus pass is usually valid for up to 3 years and you’ll need to renew it when it runs out.

If you need free travel for a companion, you can only get this with a disabled person’s bus pass.
