Why do I need a subscription if travel is free?

During a ticket inspection, the inspector cannot know whether you are eligible for free travel unless you can present a valid subscription. The same applies when boarding a bus. This is why you must complete the application process and hold a valid subscription, even if it is free.

As with all passengers, failure to present or validate your subscription may result in a fine. Travelling without a valid travel document can lead to a penalty fare.

Free travel does not exempt you from following the rules or from adopting the right habits when using the bus/tram network.
