Deutschland-Ticket

From 1 January 2027, the Deutschland-Ticket will cost EUR 66.80 per month. In addition, DB Regio AG will introduce supplementary fare information for Deutschland-Tickets sold in its name. This means that, in future, you will no longer need to agree to fare changes. We will continue to inform you of any changes affecting the Deutschland-Ticket. Your statutory and contractual rights to cancel your subscription remain unchanged.

Please note: The supplementary fare information is only available in German.

Please let us know whether you would like to keep your Deutschland-Ticket at the new price of EUR 66.80 per month or cancel your subscription. You must also agree to the supplementary fare information for your subscription to continue.

Please let us know your decision by 30 November 2026. You can do this in one of the following ways:

Via the Abo Portal

Sign in with your bahn.de account and open your Deutschland-Ticket subscription. Click "Agree to contract changes" to review the details of the changes. You can then either agree to continue your subscription at the new price and under the supplementary fare information, or decline the changes.

If you do not agree to the changes, your Deutschland-Ticket subscription will be automatically cancelled with effect from 31 December 2026.

In DB Navigator

Open DB Navigator and select your Deutschland-Ticket showing the QR code. Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap the three-dot menu. Select "Agree to contract changes".

If this option is not displayed, select "Go to the Abo Portal" instead. You will be taken directly to the Abo Portal, where you can agree to or decline the new price and the supplementary fare information.

Please note: Only the contract holder (the person who purchased the subscription) can agree to the changes. If someone else purchased the Deutschland-Ticket for you, please ensure that they agree to the price increase and the supplementary fare information by 30 November 2026 so that you can continue using your ticket in 2027.

Did you purchase your ticket on or after 15 October 2026?

You were already informed about the price increase and the supplementary fare information during the ordering process and in your order confirmation. No further action is required.

Your subscription will automatically continue in 2027 under the revised terms and conditions unless you cancel it within the applicable cancellation period.

If you do not agree to the price increase and the supplementary fare information, or if you do not respond by the deadline, we will unfortunately have to cancel your Deutschland-Ticket subscription with effect from 31 December 2026.

You do not need to take any further action. Your Deutschland-Ticket subscription will end on 31 December 2026 and you will not incur any further costs.

Please note that you will no longer be able to use your Deutschland-Ticket from 1 January 2027.

If you missed the 30 November 2026 deadline or would still like to continue your subscription, select the "Reactivate subscription" option in the Abo Portal or in DB Navigator.

This option is available only until the scheduled cancellation date of 31 December 2026. Until then, your subscription status will be "Cancellation initiated".

If you reactivate your subscription, your Deutschland-Ticket subscription will continue under the new conditions, including the new price and the supplementary fare information.

Once reactivated, your subscription status will change to "Active".

Please note: If you travel from January 2027 without a valid ticket and your ticket is inspected, an increased fare of at least EUR 60 will be charged. Please make sure that you have a valid ticket before starting your journey.

Did you purchase your ticket on or after 15 October 2026?

You were already informed about the price increase and the supplementary fare information during the ordering process and in your order confirmation. No separate agreement is required.

Your subscription will automatically continue in 2027 under the revised terms and conditions unless you cancel it within the applicable cancellation period.

The federal and state governments agreed to offer the Deutschland-Ticket as a subscription product. It is valid nationwide and enables journeys throughout Germany on local public transport and regional rail transport operated by all participating transport companies and transport associations, and across all regional fare systems, even areas not included in an association.

Overview
The Deutschland-Ticket's fare regulations are standardised for the whole of Germany. The subscription ticket is person-specific and therefore non-transferable.

• Price: EUR 63 per month 
• Contract period: Can be cancelled monthly. If a customer cancels the ticket by the 10th day of the month, the subscription ends on the last day of the same month. Cancellation after the 10th day means the subscription ends on the last day of the following month.
• Validity: Nationwide in Germany on local public transport (i.e. on all buses, trams, light rail, underground and S-Bahn trains) and on regional trains and regional express trains in 2nd class. The Deutschland-Ticket is not valid on long-distance transport, i.e. ICE, IC or EC trains.

The exact conditions of your Deutschland-Ticket can be found in the fare conditions of your respective network (transport association, regional fare system, Deutschlandtarif).

The Deutschland-Ticket can be used throughout Germany on all local trains such as RB, RE, S-Bahn trains (SPNV) and also on public transport such as buses, trams, subways, etc. (ÖPNV) of the participating state tariffs, transit authorities and transport companies in accordance with the area of validity and their conditions for any number of journeys. This applies regardless of which transport company, transit authority or national tariff is noted on the ticket itself. A Deutschland-Ticket purchased in Munich, for example, can therefore also be used for journeys in Frankfurt and the surrounding area.

Please note, however, that the Deutschland-Ticket is generally not valid on trains operated by DB Fernverkehr AG or other long-distance providers such as FlixTrain (e.g. IC, EC, ICE, but also RE of DB Fernverkehr AG). DB Fernverkehr is currently in talks with the federal states and local transport authorities about exceptions on certain sections of the route.
The Deutschland-Ticket can be used before and after a long distance train. However, a separate ticket is then always required for the long-distance route. This has an impact on any passenger rights. If you miss the connecting long distance train, the train connection is not canceled and no refund claims can be made.

Furthermore, the Deutschland-Ticket is not valid on means of transport that are operated primarily for tourist or historical purposes.

You can cancel your Deutschland-Ticket subscription by the 10th of each month to the end of the calendar month. The best way to do this is to use our Aboportal (subscription portal) or the "Cancel subscription" function in the DB Navigator below your mobile phone ticket.

The Deutschland-Ticket can be used before and after a journey on a long-distance train. However, a separate ticket is always required for the long-distance journey. This may have implications for passenger rights. If you miss the long-distance train you have booked following your journey on a local/regional service, you are not entitled to travel on another train with the same ticket and cannot claim a refund.

Unfortunately not. However, you can cancel your subscription yourself at any time in the "Aboportal" or in your mobile phone ticket. Alternatively, you can use our cancellation form to cancel at the earliest possible date. Please note the standard notice period. A Deutschland-Ticket subscription can be cancelled up to the 10th calendar day of a month with effect from the end of that month.

If your mobile phone ticket is no longer displayed, you can add the travelcard again at any time under "Travel" using the travelcard number from your activation email.

Please note: If you order a new travelcard, you will incur additional costs for the new travelcard contract.

The Deutschland-Ticket is a ticket-offer to use public transport across Germany.
