How long does it take for halbtax to be valid?

Enrique

Guten Morgen,

Ich hoffe ist gut wenn ich frage auf English. I would like to know How long does it take for halbtax to be valid after purchase it?

I would like to buy it and after that as soon as posible buy some trains for december (in these dates I would have already the normal halbtax, so I dont need a temporary one).

So, Can I buy tickets with disscount inmediately after paying the halbtax? Or how long should I wait?.

Thank you.

Best regards

Hello Enrique

You can use your Half Fare travelcard right after its purchase. If you would like to travel but you do not have your SwissPass Card yet, a transitory pass will be issued at any SBB ticket counter.

To purchase a ticket with the half fare reduction, you do not need to have the card though. You only have to show it to the controller when you are travelling.

I wish you an excellent weekend.

Best regards Rahel
