Infrastructure surcharge for rail transportation

The infrastructure surcharge was introduced following a decision by the German government to reduce funding for train path subsidies. This surcharge is a direct response to the reduced state subsidies and serves to effectively close the resulting funding gap. We are committed to making this surcharge as fair and transparent as possible to ensure that our customers continue to have access to high-quality transportation services.

For the 2st quarter of 2025, the following surcharges apply:
