Germany Ticket Discussion: Statement by Steffen Schütz on the Topic
In a recent development, the transport ministers of the German federal states have agreed to increase the cost of the Germany Ticket to 63 euros, starting from 2026. This announcement was made following a meeting held in September 2025, with the ticket price previously set at 58 euros.
The decision was motivated by cost considerations and regional funding decisions, as stated by the transport ministers. However, the exact process through which this moderate increase was achieved remains unclear.
On the evening of 18th September 2025, Thuringia's Minister Schuetz was questioned about the matter, but no further details were disclosed during the questioning.
The current price of the Germany Ticket and any future price adjustments beyond 2026 were not discussed in the meeting or in the subsequent video broadcast by MIDDLE GERMAN BROADCASTING.
At the time of writing, the video is available for viewing, providing a glimpse into the discussion surrounding the Germany Ticket price increase. It is important to note that, as per the German constitution, the federal states have the legal responsibility for local public transport, and thus, the price adjustments are made autonomously without federal influence.
This news serves as a reminder for travellers planning their trips within Germany to keep the updated ticket price in mind for the coming year. The agreement among transport ministers signifies a change in the transportation landscape, and it is crucial for the public to stay informed about such developments.
