Frequently asked questions
How do I copy the ♿ symbol?
Click the big ♿ at the top of this page to copy it, then paste it into documents, signage drafts, posts and messages.
Can I use it on real safety signage?
For real-world safety signs, use your country's official signage standards and artwork — this text character is ideal for documents, web pages and drafts, not a substitute for regulated signs.
Why does ♿ sometimes show as a box or question mark?
The box (called tofu) means the device or font viewing it has no drawing for U+267F (Wheelchair Symbol). The character itself is fine — try a different font or a newer device, or use one of the variants on this page.
Is the Wheelchair Symbol (Accessible) free to use?
Yes. ♿ is a standard Unicode text character published in the Unicode Character Database. You may use it in personal and commercial documents, designs and products without permission or payment.
