How to Use and Format the Wheelchair Symbol

Format ♿ according to the specific role defined for Wheelchair Symbol. ♿ is U+267F WHEELCHAIR SYMBOL. It is widely used to indicate wheelchair access or an accessible facility, parking space, route, or service. The encoded form is U+267F; preserve the full sequence, capitalization, combining marks, superscripts, and unit letters exactly as shown. For wheelchair symbol, placement and spacing should follow the mathematical, scientific, currency, editorial, or interface convention described on this page.

This page covers the Unicode wheelchair symbol ♿. Accessibility requirements depend on applicable standards and context; the character alone is not a complete accessibility statement. When ♿ communicates an action, quantity, category, warning, or status, include nearby readable wording and an accessible name. Test wheelchair symbol in the actual website, document, font, export format, and assistive-technology workflow rather than accepting a merely similar glyph.

  • Use respectful, current wording such as “wheelchair accessible”

  • State the actual accessible feature beside the symbol

  • Do not claim full accessibility from one feature alone

  • Give interactive icons an accessible name

  • Preserve the exact encoded form U+267F when publishing wheelchair symbol.

  • Use UTF-8 text or complete numeric references for ♿ rather than a visual lookalike.

  • Test wheelchair symbol rendering, copying, search, and accessibility in the final application.

More About the Wheelchair Symbol

Wheelchair Symbol is the encoded character ♿, Unicode U+267F WHEELCHAIR SYMBOL. The page uses the exact character identity for copy, typing, and text lookup. The older search wording associated with “handicapped” should not determine the visible title or the language used in accessibility instructions.

In text, ♿ can accompany information about wheelchair access, accessible parking, step-free routes, accessible restrooms, or seating locations. A useful label names the actual feature, such as “wheelchair-accessible entrance,” instead of displaying the character without explanation. One accessible feature also does not prove that every accessibility requirement has been met.

The Unicode symbol is not a replacement for legally required physical signage, building information, or a jurisdiction’s official accessibility graphic. It should not be used decoratively, and it should not be presented as a complete description of a person. Where the character operates as a button or map control, provide an accessible name and a text alternative.

Copy ♿ as a single code point and confirm U+267F in the destination. Web content may use the literal symbol, ♿, or ♿. Appearance can vary between monochrome fonts and emoji-style platforms, so test color, alignment, and legibility in the final layout.
