Public Transport (DOT) companies – DSB, Metroselskabet, and Movia – have announced fare adjustments for 2023 due to rising fuel and energy prices. This announcement comes after several years without any increases in public transport fares. Based on the new fuel and energy market data, public transport will raise fares by an average of 4.91 TP3T in Sjælland, Lolland, and Falster, while some other fares will be reduced. This is because the Ministry of Transport aims to reduce the difference between individual ticket prices and subscription prices, which currently stands at approximately 361 TP3T. The updated fare schedule, effective January 15, 2023, is as follows:

  • Individual tickets Enkeltbillet
    The new prices mean that customers traveling with single tickets will see a price reduction if they travel beyond two zones (zoner 2).

For example, the price of a single ticket with three zoners will decrease from 36 to 30 kroner, while the price of a longer trip with 12 zoners will decrease from 116 kroner to 96 kroner.

  • Rejsekort Mobility Card Subscription
    Customers using a regular commuter card for their trip will see an increase in average prices of 8.6%, meaning, for example, that a trip from three zones in rejsekort will increase by 2 kroner to become 23.50 kroner.

While a longer journey using rejsekort as a 12 zoner trip will increase by 1.5 kroner to become 79.5 kroner.

  • Passenger Card Pendlerkort
    Customers traveling using this type on trips up to ten zoner will see price increases ranging between 0 and 9.8%.

For example, the price of a passenger card in two zoner will increase by 40 kroner per month to cost 450 kroner, and the price of a passenger card in eight zoner will increase by 20 kroner to reach 1,350 kroner per month.

On the other hand, all customers holding passenger cards for more than ten zoners can expect prices to remain the same until next year.

  • Pensionist card
    Pensioners traveling with a pensioner's card will face a price increase of between 4.5 and 4.8%, as the price of a three-zone card valid for three months will increase by a total of 30 kroner, equivalent to 10 kroner per month, while the price of a pensioner's card for one main zone will increase by 40 kroner for a three-month validity card, equivalent to 13.33 kroner per month.
