Südtirol Pass business
The eco-friendly way to get around for work
Would you like your employees to travel in an environmentally friendly way – by using public transport? Then the Südtirol Pass business edition is the ideal solution for your company or for your association: a convenient and flexible ticket for business trips throughout South Tyrol.
Top benefits: Your employees are entirely flexible in the way they travel to appointments, at the same time eliminating the need to look for parking or manage and settle travel expenses – while your company can claim tax deductions for travel expenses paid for with Südtirol Pass business tickets. But above all, your company actively contributes to reducing traffic and becomes a role model for sustainable mobility management.
Südtirol Pass business tickets can be used on all means of public transport within the entire südtirolmobil network and on regional trains all the way to Trento. They are also valid on cross-border train services to Innsbruck or Lienz (regional trains only). All journeys within Austria are charged at the official VVT/ÖBB rate. Südtirol Pass business holders can also use the ticket on Nightliner services and to pay for transporting pets or bicycles (day pass).
Please note that Südtirol Pass business tickets are not valid on long-distance or high-speed trains (EC, Freccia, Italo, Railjet etc.).
Südtirol Pass business tickets can be used by different employees, but not at the same time: Only one person can check in for a bus or train journey at a time, but not several people at once.
All journeys by bus and train within the südtirolmobil network are charged a fixed rate of 12 cents per km. Cross-border journeys on regional trains to Innsbruck or Lienz are charged at the official VVT/ÖBB rate starting from the border.
A minimum fare (10 km) will be charged for all journeys, including those on urban buses in Bolzano/Bozen and Merano/Meran. Connecting bus journeys in all of South Tyrol except Bolzano/Bozen and Merano/Meran are charged at a minimum fare of 5 km.
All journeys within 60 minutes made in the same fare zone on urban buses in Bolzano/Bozen and Merano/Meran are charged as a single journey.
Südtirol Pass business tickets are available to all private businesses and public institutions, individual enterprises, self-employed persons or freelancers as well as associations in possession of an Italian VAT number or TAX ID (codice fiscale/Steuernummer).
One or more tickets can be requested for any number of employees. Companies with many employees can apply for several tickets at a time and group them together by office, department or branch, for example. In this case, a separate application form must be submitted for each group, and separate user accounts must be set up accordingly.
In contrast to the standard Südtirol Pass, Südtirol Pass business tickets are not personalised, meaning that each ticket can be used by different employees – just not by several people on the same journey.

Before using your Südtirol Pass business ticket for the first time, you will need to activate it through your user account: Simply enter your Südtirol Pass business number, after which the ticket will be unlocked. Please note that it may take a few hours for the activation to be recorded in the system and for your new Südtirol Pass business ticket to be ready for use.
Südtirol Pass Business tickets are only available on a post-paid contract using SEPA Direct Debit. All ticket expenses are automatically debited from your company bank account every two months, or every four months if the total amounts to less than EUR 10.
Invoices are delivered automatically through the official SDI system.
Your Südtirol Pass business ticket is valid for one year from the day on which it is first activated. After a full year has passed, it is automatically extended for another year starting from the day on which it is first used again.
If it is not used for a whole subscription year, your Südtirol Pass business ticket will be automatically deactivated. You can reactivate it at any time by simply calling the südtirolmobil Service and Information Centre at +39 0471 220 880 or by e-mailing us at contact@suedtirolmobil.info.
If your Südtirol Pass business ticket is lost, stolen or visibly damaged, you can order a duplicate online through your user account. Duplicates cost 20 EUR each. Please note that once your order is submitted, it can no longer be cancelled.
If your Südtirol Pass business ticket is not visibly damaged but worn out and/or no longer functional due to a defect, you can order a replacement from the Südtirol Pass ticketing office free of charge.
