Refugees and asylum seekers who still have to live in the reception centre receive a personalised “Welcome to Berlin Ticket” on registration. This allows you to use all trams, buses, underground and urban railways and all modes of transport from other transport companies in Berlin AB fare zone. As an asylum seeker, if you no longer have to live in the reception centre, you will receive a Berlinpass with which you can decide for yourself whether to by a discounted Berlin-Ticket-S or single tickets. Important: you may use the local public transport only with a valid ticket. If you are checked and have no ticket then you must pay 60 Euro in addition.
