Since 2023, there have been several new ticket offers for local public transport - a DeutschlandTicket Studi will be available nationwide for the 2024 summer semester. We have compiled the various options for you:
DeutschlandTicket JugendBW
A discounted DeutschlandTicket for young people was introduced in Baden-Württemberg on December 1, 2023 - students up to and including the age of 26 can purchase it. This replaced the JugendTicketBW. With the DeutschlandTicket JugendBW, you can use local public transport throughout Germany around the clock for one euro per day. You receive the ticket as an annual subscription with a monthly rate of 30.42 euros.
Further information can be found on the VVS website.
DeutschlandTicket
On May 2023the DeutschlandTicket was introduced nationwide, with no age limit. For 49 euros a month, you can use all means of local transport throughout Germany. The ticket is offered as an annual subscription, but can be canceled monthly.
DeutschlandTicket Studi (from summer semester 2024)
At the end of November 2023, the federal and state governments agreed to introduce a discounted Deutschlandticket for students - with no age limit. It will be available from the 2024 summer semester at a uniform nationwide price of 60 percent of the regular DeutschlandTicket. As things stand at present (December 2023), this would be 29.40 euros per month or 176.40 euros per semester.
However, a prerequisite for this ticket is that the constituted student body of a university concludes a corresponding contract for a full solidarity model. In this case, all students at the relevant university must purchase the ticket for each semester - it is not freely selectable and cannot be terminated on a monthly basis.
AusbildungsTicket 27/ U27
If you prefer to use a flexible monthly ticket, you can purchase the AusbildungsTicket 27/ U27. With this ticket, you can use local transport in the VVS area around the clock. Students up to and including the age of 26 pay 50.60 euros per month. Students aged 27 and over pay 60.20 euros per month or 50.17 euros for an annual subscription.
