General information

A separate order form for the KlimaTicket Upper Austria is available for social institutions, carers and people with individual care needs:

Application form

This form can be used to order a ticket on behalf of a third person and asks for all the important details, such as contact details, a photo and a power of attorney.


This is how the order works

Fill in the form

Enter all the necessary information about the passenger and the person placing the order in the online form.

Data check and offer

  1. After the application has been sent, the Upper Austrian Transport Association checks all the details.
  2. An offer is then created and sent to the person submitting the application.
  3. The offer contains the ticket terms and conditions, the bank details and a unique offer number.
  4. This offer number must be stated in the reason for payment when transferring the money later.

Acceptance of the offer by bank transfer

As soon as the full amount has been transferred with the correct offer number, the offer is automatically deemed to have been accepted.
This concludes the contract - no further confirmation is required.

The KlimaTicket Upper Austria allows free use of all public transport in the entire area covered by the Upper Austrian Transport Association. However, if passengers wish to travel beyond this network area, for example to Vienna or Salzburg, they require an additional ticket for the section of the journey outside Upper Austria. The decisive factor here is always the last scheduled stop within the OÖVV network area - up to this point the journey is fully covered by the KlimaTicket OÖ, from this stop for the journey outside the network area a separate ticket must be purchased.

The OÖVV ticket shop offers a particularly simple and secure solution for this. The KlimaTicket OÖ can be stored there as a discount product. As soon as this is done, the ticket shop automatically recognises which parts of the selected connection are covered by the KlimaTicket and at which point an additional purchase is required. The shop automatically determines the last stop in the network, calculates the correct fare for the additional route and issues the appropriate ticket. This eliminates the need for passengers to find out the network boundary or the last stop in the OÖVV area themselves and they can be sure of receiving the correct ticket at all times. For a journey from Upper Austria to another federal state, only the section of the route that is no longer covered by the KlimaTicket OÖ is calculated in the ticket shop after entering the desired connection.

The KlimaTicket OÖ can be displayed as a digital ticket in the OÖVV ticket app. To do this, it is necessary to log in to the OÖVV ticket app under "My account".

For example, it is important to ensure that the mobile phone battery is appropriately charged when showing the ticket. It should also be noted that the network is not available everywhere without restrictions and that there may therefore be limitations when displaying a digital ticket.

ÖBB calculates the compensation as specified in the General Terms and Conditions of the Federal Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment and Energy.


Example of theClimate Ticket Ö:The Federal Ministry has defined a rail share of the KlimaTicket Ö price (compensation is only payable for railways, price shares for inner-city transport and bus transport are deducted). Currently it is approx. € 494 = annual compensation basis. One twelfth of this = monthly basis, 10% of which is ~ € 4.00.


Example from theUpper Austria climate ticket:The same procedure applies here. The railway share of ÖBB in Upper Austria is 31.03% (local and long-distance transport share). Since the price shares for inner-city transport and bus transport are also deducted here, € 113.26 is taken from the purchase price of € 365.00 as the basis for compensation.

One twelfth of this is the monthly basis of € 9.44. 10% of this is ~ € 0.94 per month. If the delay affects all 12 months of the validity of the KlimaTicket OÖ, this results in the maximum amount of € 11.33 as maximum compensation for delay.


OÖVV Info SymbolIt should also be noted that since the changeover to the KlimaTicket, the punctuality value of the (transport) network is calculated and not of a certain route as is the case with annual tickets.


OÖVV Info SymbolPlease note: The calculation and payment of the delay compensation is carried out by the railway companies and can only be granted for fully used tickets (12 months) after expiry of validity.

Job ticket becomes public transport ticket

Until now, a job ticket meant that the employer could provide each employee with a tax-free travel card exclusively for the journey between home and work.

Since 1 July 2021, employees have been able to order the KlimaTicket OÖ themselves. All they have to do is submit the invoice they receive with the ticket to their employer.


New regulation since 01 January 2023

There has been a change to the commuter allowance since 01 January 2023:

The Tax Amendment Act 2022 stipulates that the commuter allowance will only be reduced by the value of the public transport ticket (KlimaTicket OÖ) from 2023 and will not be cancelled completely.

This means that the commuter allowance will be reduced, but not cancelled.

Since 1 January 2023, holders of KlimaTickets (KlimaTicket OÖ and KlimaTicket Ö) and monthly tickets are entitled to travel with a large dog free of charge. This does not apply to long-distance rail transport (e.g.: RJ, RJX, WB,...).

Correspondingly labelled assistance dogs are transported free of charge and without a muzzle.
Guide dogs for the blind, service dogs and signal dogs are legally recognised as assistance dogs within the meaning of §§39a BBG.

Yes, that is possible! You can add the core zone Linz, Wels or Steyr to your KlimaTicket OÖ Regional. If you need more than one core zone, we recommend the KlimaTicket OÖ Gesamt. This is significantly cheaper than two individual core zone surcharges.

Please note that a core zone cannot be added to or printed on an existing ticket. In this case, the existing ticket must be cancelled and reissued, as the subject of the contract changes. When a new ticket is issued, you will automatically receive a new area and period of validity. Cancellation is possible at the OÖVV Customer Centre.

However, you can change it if you wish. Thisrequires the ticket to be reissued .The processing fee stipulated in the fare regulations will be retained for the change . For further information, please contact the OÖVV Customer Centre.

Yes, you have the option of extending your KlimaTicket OÖ Regional, either to include an additional core zone (Linz, Wels or Steyr), to be valid in the entire Upper Austria region (including all core zones) or to switch to the KlimaTicket Austria. To do this, it is necessary to cancel your current ticket and issue a new, extended ticket. When changing to a higher-value ticket, there are no processing fees for the cancellation and refund.
The cancellation must be made by the OÖVV customer centre.

Further information on cancellation can be found at:
to the article
During the period of validity, a KlimaTicket OÖ can be cancelled from the seventh month of validity without giving reasons. Proof of return of the ticket to a service centre is required for effective cancellation. A cancellation fee of one monthly amount will be charged; this is one twelfth of the purchase price. In the case of SEPA direct debit, the cancellation fee will still be debited. In the case of a one-off payment, the monthly amounts for each month of validity that has not yet begun will be transferred less the cancellation fee.

If there are certain reasons, the ticket can be cancelled during the period of validity without a cancellation fee. The KlimaTicket OÖ must be demonstrably returned to a service centre within four weeks of the reason for cancellation. This is the case
- when moving to another federal state or abroad by providing proof of the new address
- when changing to a higher-priced KlimaTicket OÖ or to the KlimaTicket Ö
- in the event of illness over a period of three months or more by means of a medical certificate
- in the event of unemployment by providing proof of an unemployment certificate
