It's not worth riding without a valid ticket!

Anyone who cannot present a valid ticket on a bus or train, or who has not validated their ticket immediately upon boarding, must pay a surcharge of 60 euros and may face criminal penalties.


Anyone who has a valid time-based ticket but is unable to present it during an inspection may submit the valid ticket to the contracted transit company within 14 days for a processing fee of 7 euros.
