Reduced fare as from the 3rd purchase
What fare?
As of the 3rd school or 18-24 Brussels season ticket in your household, you only pay € 0 for a STIB-MIVB school/18-24 Brussels or € 40 for a Brupass school season ticket. You can perfectly combine the school season tickets and the 18-24 Brussels tickets to benefit from this discount.
How to get the reduced fare?
You or one of your siblings benefit from a school or 18-24 Brussels season ticket for the first time, in such a way that you get to 3 purchases in the same year?
- Update your profile: fill in the form on school.stib-mivb.be or go to a BOOTIK in one of our metro stations.
- All the season tickets must start during the same tariff period (between 1 February and 31 January of the following year)
- The reduced fare depends on the chronological order of purchase. This means it is not necessarily applied on the youngest child’s ticket.
Example: There’s three of you: 11, 12 and 19 years old. Your 12-year-old brother has a STIB-MIVB school season ticket. You are 19 years old and have a MIVB-STIB 18-24 Brussels season ticket. When your youngest sister will be 12 years old, you get a discount on the third season ticket you buy or renew in the same year.
Frequently asked questions
You are a student in another EU country?
You too are entitled to a school season ticket until you turn 25, whether you are in Brussels for an Erasmus, an internship or a leisure stay. Present in that case an original school certificate delivered by a EU educational institution. This certificate must be dated with the current school year.
You already own a MOBIB card for your STIB-MIVB -12 years season ticket?
No problem! If your MOBIB card is not older than 5 years, you do not even have to replace it. To load the school season ticket on your MOBIB card, go to a GO vending machine, a or use on our online purchase platform, GO Easy.
You own a MOBIB card from another public transport operator?
Again: no problem! If the electronic TEC, De Lijn or SNCB-NMBS card is not older than 5 years, keep it and simply load it with the season ticket of your choice.
To do so:
- Either purchase your season ticket in a BOOTIK or KIOSK: the transport ticket will be loaded directly on your card
- Or purchase your school season ticket online: your card must be registered in the STIB-MIVB system, which you can simply do by placing it on the reader of a GO vending machine
