Am I eligible for a Companion Card?
To be eligible for an NSW Companion Card you must be a person with significant and permanent disability and can provide evidence that:
- You require lifelong attendant care support to access the community
- Aids and other technologies do not help you access the community independently
- You are an Australian citizen or permanent resident and live in NSW.
Note: Eligibility for NDIS does not mean you meet the NSW Companion Card criteria.
The Companion Card allows a cardholder’s support person free entry into participating venues and events.
The outcome presented using this tool is a guide only.
