In contrast to the previous semester ticket, the student ID card is no longer valid as a ticket, but a digital ticket is required and the identity card as a document for verification at a ticket inspection.students of Trier universities must register online in the Portazon app of Stadtwerke Trier to receive the digital ticket via smartphone.

Students at the university have already received their personal access code. Students at Trier University will receive the code at the end of March from the Studierendenwerk Trier by e-mail.
With the Germany semester ticket, the regional Trier semester ticket loses its validity, which means that the student ID card is no longer valid as a ticket; only the digital ticket in the Portazon app (Android / iOS) will allow students at Trier University of Applied Sciences to travel on all local and regional transport between the North Sea coast and the Alps from March 1 and students at Trier University from April 1.
The validity period covers the entire duration of the summer semester for students at Trier University of Applied Sciences (1.03.2024 to 31.08.2024) and Trier University (01.04.2024 to 30.09.2024).
The validity includes all local public transport throughout Germany (2nd class), i.e. all regular buses, local trains, suburban and subway trains and streetcars. The ticket is not valid on long-distance trains such as Intercity or ICE trains. It is only issued to you personally in the Portazon app. In the event of an inspection, you will also need to show your ID card as further proof of identity.
The semester ticket allows you to be mobile at the location of your studies and in the area without your own car. For the way to the lecture, the way back from the cinema or for the journey at the weekend the semester ticket allows for the simple use of busses and trains in the area and in town, without you having to pay for each trip separately. And all of this without having to worry about parking!
Already since the summer semester 1992 the Trier semester ticket has been offered to the students of the Trier Universities as a service provided by the Studierendenwerk Trier and the transportation companies of the area.
With the use of the semester ticket all students contribute actively to the protection of the environment by reducing the individual traffic and the connected emissions of noise and pollutants.
This does not only save time, but above all it saves money and spares your nerves.
Instead of getting worked up in the car due to the red traffic lights and traffic jams you better spend your time with sensible things whilst being taken to your destination!
