Using the bus and train – free of charge

The semester fee includes something called a “semester ticket” for students at the university. The semester ticket can be used as a Germany-wide ticket ("Deutschland-Ticket") starting from April 1st 2024! The University of Trier's semester ticket is valid for regional and local transport throughout Germany. The digital ticket is issued with a QR code in the Portazon app.

► More information about the semester ticket on the website of Studiwerk Trier.

Public transportation (ÖPNV) in Luxembourg is free for everyone. Free transportation ends at the Luxembourg border. Trier University students who travel by train (2nd class) or bus from or to Luxembourg, travel free of charge thanks to their semester ticket.
