Berlin-Ticket S

Since January 1, 2023, the “berlinpass” has been replaced by a proof of entitlement ("Berechtigungsnachweis"). This is required in order to be able to apply for the new VBB customer card Berlin S. The Berlin-Ticket S consists of the VBB customer card Berlin S and the ticket (coupon). Only both together serve as travel authorization and must be carried along on the journey. The Berlin-Ticket S entitles you to use all means of transport within the tariff area Berlin AB. It is issued as a non-transferable monthly pass. The offer is not available on a sliding basis, not as an annual ticket and not as a subscription.

Information about the group of people eligible for the Berlin Ticket S can be found here.

To issue a VBB customer card Berlin S, the proof of entitlement with a QR code, a passport photo and an identity document with a photo are required. You can apply online to the BVG using this link.

Eligible persons will automatically receive the new proof of entitlement from their benefits office for the period of their benefit approval. In order to be able to use the Berlin-Ticket S without any interruptions, you must apply for further authorization independently and in good time.

You can purchase the monthly tickets for the price of 9,00 Euro at all ticket machines, in the BVG apps and also in private sales shops (e.g. late-night sales shops, newsagents). However, purchasing in customer centers is still possible. The monthly price of 9,00 Euro for the Berlin-Ticket S also applies in 2024.

A dog, a stroller and luggage can be taken along free of charge - as can children up to the age of 6 (up to three children on ferries), but no bicycle. To take a bicycle with you once, you must purchase a single ticket bicycle.
