Please apply for school travel tickets online through the VGN portal VGNsmaxi. Fürth no longer accepts paper applications.
A student ticket requires a Verbundpass. If you live in Fürth, you also need to apply for school travel cost exemption. For children under 16, a parent or guardian registers for the Verbundpass. For young people under 18, a parent or guardian registers for the cost-exemption application. This application automatically includes the Verbundpass. If you apply late, tickets you have bought yourself will not be refunded.
From year 5, school travel is free if the route to the nearest school is longer than 3 km, if the route is officially classed as especially dangerous or difficult, or if a lasting disability makes transport necessary. The City of Fürth decides whether these conditions are met, not the school.
If you have questions about applying, please contact the Schulverwaltungsamt Fürth on 0911 974-1664. The school office can help you find the application form, but cannot decide whether you qualify for free travel.
