Tickets & Fares

In Berlin the Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg (VBB) tariff applies.

You are looking for the right ticket for you? Whether you are a Berliner or a Berlin visitor, you have come to the right place.

Your advantage: With a VBB ticket you can use all the means of transport of the various transport companies in Berlin and Brandenburg.

The tariff area is the VBB region. It includes the two states Land Berlin as well as Land Brandenburg with its rural area districts and self-administered cities: Brandenburg an der Havel, Cottbus, Frankfurt (Oder) and Potsdam.

Berlin and the self-administered cities have defined tariff areas. The Berlin tariff area is subdivided into zones A, B and C.

Zone A: Berlin's inner city up to and including the S-Bahn ring

Zone B: outside the S-Bahn ring up to the city boundary

Zone C: Greater Berlin (area approx. 15 km around Land Berlin), including the City of Potsdam

Please refer to the route network to find out in which zone a certain station is. A detailed route map is provided in the BVG Atlas. This is available at any ticket counter.

Tickets are available for the combined zones AB, BC and ABC, depending on your requirements. With a ticket for zones AB you are always right within Berlin!
