Getting a 3-Month Public Transport Pass
Your one-month transportation passes will expire soon, so it is time to get a new coupon. Make sure to purchase it in time or in advance to avoid a hefty fine.
Here’s how you do it:
Lítačka App – recommended
1. If you haven’t done so already, from the App Store, or Android Store, download the PID Lítačka app and create a profile (you will need to upload a photo).
2. Go into your profile and enter your ISIC card number (must be issued by Charles University) to get the student discount.
3. Buy a pass (not a ticket).
– select the 3-month pass (čtvrtletní) and enter the start date: the expiry date of your current coupon will show up at the bottom of the page – select the following day as the start date for the new coupon
– Tariff: Select Student (18-26)
– ZONE – you should get the Prague zone (Praha) – 0.
– Proceed to payment
5. You will be charged 360 CZK. Note: You CANNOT GET A STUDENT DISCOUNT before you secure your ISIC card in Prague.
6. If you prefer to do it in person, you can go to the Litacka office where you can also get a physical Lítačka card.
A regular paper metro pass
If you do not have an ISIC issued by the local Charles University, you can buy a metro pass at one of the public transport info centres listed on the Prague public transport company website using the Charles University Student ID.
The closest one to the academic centre is at Můstek metro station.
