It is valid from 1 October 2025 to 31 March 2026. Please note that the Deutschlandsemesterticket is no longer verified via thoska, but via a mobile phone app. The thoska is therefore no longer a valid ticket. The Deutschlandsemesterticket is valid on all local trains in regular service in 2nd class (e.g. S-Bahn, RB, RE, IRE) as well as on buses, trams and underground trains operated by transport associations and transport companies participating in the Germany Ticket scheme. Any exceptions, particularly for tourist transport, should be checked with the respective transport companies. All information here
IMPORTANT: Once the DST has been requested, a refund of the semester fee is not possible.
