Traveling to Europe? Get Your Eurokey!
If a trip across the pond is in your future, then make sure and get a Eurokey for access to wheelchair-accessible restrooms in many European countries. This universal key provides access to restrooms that have accessible toilets, lifts, and lifting platforms, which are usually locked for safety or maintenance reasons. This key allows travelers with a disability independent access to toilet facilities in Switzerland, Germany, Austria and many other European countries.
Like the RADAR Key in the UK (https://emerginghorizons.com/do-i-need-a-radar-toilet-key-for-my-london-trip/), the Eurokey can be purchased by people with a disability who need an accessible restroom. You can order a key online at www.eurokey.ch/en/people-with-disabilities/order-your-eurokey-online.html or shop.cbf-da.de/. In order to purchase a Eurokey you need to upload a “proof of disability document” This can be a disability ID, medical certificate or similar documentation, including an accessible parking placard or any document that states or verifies your disability.
After you receive your key, be sure and download the Eurokey app. This handy resource gives users the locations and detailed information about accessible restrooms that can be accessed with this universal key.
