Request, change, or submit a claim for school transportation

Types of forms

There are three types of forms:

1. New application: This is a new application. Use this form if your child has not yet been approved for school transportation.

   Important information for new applications. Applications for student transportation can only be submitted for education at a school or educational institution. Does your child attend a day program or a medical daycare center? If so, please contact CMD Toegang first at 040 - 289 38 99.

2. Change to the award: This section covers changes. It applies if you already have an award and want to make an adjustment.
3. Mileage Reimbursement Claim: This form is for submitting a claim. Use it if you have been approved for mileage reimbursement (for car or public transportation) and would like to be reimbursed for the days you drove your child to school.

What do you need to submit the application?

Health you have the following information on hand:

• School name and address;
• Explanation of why your child cannot travel independently;
• What disability or disability(ies) does your child have? We need documentation to support this.

Substantiation

If your child is unable to travel to school independently due to a physical disability, we ask that you provide supporting documentation. By this, we mean information that explains your child’s disability.

It is important for us to know:

• what your child can and cannot do;
• how your child is developing; 
• what can be expected in terms of independence. 

Please include the most recent documents.

What documents can you include? 

Always use the most recent documents (no older than 1 year). You can include relevant information from sources such as:

• The school's action plan or development plan (OPP) 
• Psychological or psychiatric evaluation 
• Treatment plan (e.g., from Herlaarhof) 
• Psychodiagnostic examination of the school 
• Medical reporting 
• Physical Therapy Report 
• Statement of Eligibility (TLV) from the partnership (if applicable)

We will determine whether your child is attending the nearest accessible school. If no Statement of Eligibility (TLV) has been issued, or if it does not specifically list the name of the most appropriate school, we will discuss this with you and request additional information. 

Statement of Income

A statement of income from the Internal Revenue Service is required if:

• your child is in elementary school
• the distance to the nearest school is more than 6 km
• your combined income is less than €33,750 (for the 2024 reference year)

Important: Does your child attend special (primary) education (SO or SBO)? If so, an income statement is not required. You can download the income statement from the Tax Authority’s website. If you wish to attach a file, the maximum size is 32 MB. If you have multiple attachments, their combined size may not exceed 128 MB. Accepted file types are: pdf, gif, jpg, png, jpeg, dsc, efdj, docx, xlsx.

Submit for new school year

Are you applying for pupil transportation for the new school year? Then you can submit the application from April. Please make sure that your application form reaches us before June 1, so that you receive a decision from us in time.

Is the application incomplete? 

After we receive your application, we will check if the application is complete or if we need more information from you. If we need more information from you to make a decision, we may ask you to send in more substantiation. You will then be given a recovery period in which to send in the additional information.

Rules and Evaluation

Your application will be reviewed in accordance with the Student Transportation Funding Regulation. You can find these rules on the website www.overheid.nl.
