In Benevento, holders of the European disability parking permit known in Italy as the Contrassegno Unificato Disabili Europeo, or CUDE, do not need extra steps to use pay-and-display blue parking spaces under the arrangement reported locally. That is the clarification shared by Federconsumatori Benevento after a formal query to BeMobi, the parking operator, as reported by NTR24.
According to the report, BeMobi confirmed that there is no additional procedure for CUDE holders using blue stalls under the stated conditions. In particular, drivers are not required to register their licence plate in advance or notify the operator about the parking session.
What drivers are asked to do is straightforward: display the original CUDE on the dashboard, clearly visible, with the expiry date and identifying details legible. The clarification refers specifically to the original permit, not a copy.
The position reported is attributed to BeMobi through Federconsumatori Benevento's formal request. It is not presented as a separately obtained municipal order.
How to use blue stalls with a CUDE in Benevento
For visitors and residents, the reported procedure has two practical points:
- Park in a marked blue stall and follow posted local rules on the street.
- Leave the original CUDE on the dashboard where it can be seen from outside, making sure the expiry date and identification elements are readable.
Do not rely on leaving a note, a photocopy, or a phone message to the operator. The reported guidance points only to visible display of the original permit, without prior plate registration or communication to BeMobi.
Reserved accessible spaces remain the first choice where available. Check signs on site, because local markings determine which stalls are reserved, which are paid, and any time limits that apply.
Why the national CUDE platform matters
The Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport describes CUDE as linked to a national platform that lets municipalities check licence plates associated with permits. The system is designed for verification of access to limited-traffic zones and use of reserved spaces.
The Ministry also says the platform aims to make it easier for entitled holders to travel to other municipalities without seeking prior authorisation for limited-traffic zones and reserved parking. That context is useful for disabled drivers visiting Benevento from elsewhere in Campania or other regions: verification can be done digitally by the municipality rather than through paper permits from each town.
That national function mainly concerns digital plate checks, access to limited-traffic zones, and reserved parking. It does not by itself rewrite every local rule on paid parking. Local conditions for blue stalls still matter.
What is still not confirmed
The full text of BeMobi's reply and a specific municipal act setting out every detail for blue-stall parking were not available in the validated research. Tariffs, hours, possible local exceptions, and the distinction between free and discounted parking were not specified in the reporting.
Before parking, read the signs on the street and, where reserved stalls exist, use them first. If a stall is marked differently, if signage is unclear, or if a penalty notice is issued, keep the CUDE details and parking location and ask Federconsumatori Benevento, BeMobi, or the City of Benevento for case-specific confirmation.
