Season or Day Ticket with MIVB/STIB
Combine the train with MIVB/STIB
Do you use NMBS/SNCB trains in conjunction with MIVB/STIB public transport services? Then take advantage of a saving by buying a combined season ticket, always less expensive and you will also be able to travel with an all-in-one travel ticket on your selected route.
- your season ticket links your most important route with the entire MIVB/STIB Brussels transport network (excluding lines 12 and 21 on the Bourget - Brussels Airport route)
- to take advantage of this arrangement, all you need is for your departure or destination station to be part of the Brussels zone or to/from Ruisbroek, Lot, Buda or Vilvoorde stations
- it is possible to combine rail travel with the MIVB/STIB Brussels transport network with a Standard Season Ticket, Student Season Ticket or a Unlimited Season Ticket
- the total charge for your season ticket is calculated by adding the STIB charge to the price of your SNCB season ticket
- your season ticket is immediately available from the station ticket office
Since the installation of security gates in the metro stations on the MIVB/STIB network, for a combined season ticket you will also receive a MoBIB Card in addition to your NMBS/SNCB travel ticket.
Practical advice for young people
- Are you a student under 25 years old and want to combine the SNCB Student Abonnement with the STIB subscription? Buy the STIB Student pass separately, directly from the STIB company for €12. It is only available through their sales channels.
- Are you a young person living in Brussels, between 18 and 24 years old and want to combine the SNCB Standard Abonnement and the STIB subscription? Buy the STIB subscription separately, directly from the STIB company for €12. It is only available through their sales channels.
| Traveler type | 1 month | 3 months | 12 months |
| 25 and + | € 49 | € 137 | € 499 |
| under 25* | € 49 | € 137 | € 499* |

* For young people under 25 years old who have a 12 month valid Student Abonnement for the train, for young Brussels residents between 18 and 24 years old who have a 12 month Standard Abonnement, and for travellers aged 65 and over who have a Standard Abonnement valid for 3 or 12 months, it is more advantageous to purchase the MIVB/STIB subscription separately, directly from the MIVB/STIB company.
To buy your first season ticket, you've got two options :
- Online via My SNCB. Click 'Buy new subscription' and follow the steps up to the payment screen.
- At the ticket counter at a station of choice with:
- your electronic ID card
- your MoBIB card (if you already have one)
- your completed school certificate if you are 18+ and want to buy a Student Season Ticket
Don't have a MoBIB card yet? No problem! You'll get one online or at the counter for a processing fee of € 5 when buying your first season ticket.
- The majority of your train pass (an average of 67% for a 2nd class pass) and of your supplement (an average of 71.8%) is legally required to be reimbursed by the employer. So you can take unlimited trains between home and office for an average of 33% of the cost of a 2nd class pass. If your employer enters into a third party payer agreement for commuting with SNCB, you only have to pay your own part at the time of purchase and no longer have to advance the full amount.
- Free travel to work? For employees from the private sector, there is the possibility of a free train pass, possibly supplemented with a free STIB/MIVB supplement. This depends on what your employer offers. To travel to work free of charge, your employer needs to conclude a third-party payer agreement for commuting with SNCB. Employees of the Federal Government can also apply for a free train pass, possibly supplemented with a free STIB/MIVB supplement.
- If your employer has concluded a third-party payer agreement for B-parking with SNCB, you can also park entirely free of charge in B-Parking pay car parks at the station (subject to availability). Parking at (smaller) stations is often free of charge.
