You will receive your Deutschlandsemesterticket (DST) as a digital ticket in the S-Bahn app.
After successfully registering for the winter semester 2025/26 and submitting your data to the S-Bahn, you will receive an email with an activation link. Then log in to the S-Bahn app and retrieve your current ticket.
Important: Your DST is issued monthly in the app. Therefore, you must retrieve it again each month. A new application is not necessary. The ticket is automatically updated in your user account before the 1st of every month.
You can find further information and instructions in the appendix and here: https://sbahn.berlin/en/tickets/all-tickets/school-students-apprentice-students/deutschlandsemesterticket/
Note: To use the S-Bahn app, you need a smartphone with Android 8 (or newer) or iOS 16.7 (or newer).
