Is the Germany Ticket transferable?
The Germany Ticket is personal and non-transferable to other individuals. A personalized ticket is valid only for its holder — and only in conjunction with an official photo ID. Your name (in encrypted form), your date of birth (month and year), and your gender are stored on the personalized eTicket chip card.

Can I take my bike for free?
The free transport of bicycles is not automatically included in the Deutschlandticket. This varies depending on the transport company, and the respective local fare regulations apply.
For taking a bicycle on our buses and throughout the RMV fare zone, no additional ticket is required – you can take your bike for free. However, there is no entitlement to bring bicycles or kick scooters. Passengers with wheelchairs or strollers take priority over passengers with bicycles or kick scooters.

Can I take my dog with me for free?
The free transport of dogs or other animals is not automatically included in the Deutschlandticket. This varies depending on the transport company, and the respective local tariff regulations apply.
On buses operated by ESWE Verkehr and other transport companies within the RMV, the Gemeinsame Beförderungsbedingungen (gültig ab 01.01.2022) apply. Under § 11, regarding the transport of animals, you can read the guidelines for taking animals along. It is important to note that guide dogs accompanying blind passengers are always allowed to travel!
