Trenitalia regional train tickets

When you board a regional train, remember to have a valid and validated ticket.

If, during the journey, you find yourself without the correct travel documents or show expired tickets, you will be required to pay the full price plus a fine of €200, unless different regional provisions. Payment made within 15 days of notification will reduce the amount to €100. On the contrary, immediate payment to the train's on-board staff will bring the fine to €50. This rule is also applicable if you have a regional ticket online but do not have a valid identity document to present.

If your ticket is not valid for that particular train or service (for example, you have selected the wrong category or you are traveling on a different route), you will have to cover the difference at full price and pay a surcharge of €8.

Remember that, except in specific regional cases, you can ask the conductor as soon as you get on the train to purchase or validate the ticket without incurring any surcharge. This is possible in the following scenarios:

Regional ticket validity

The regional ticket has its own validity and those in paper format are valid until 11:59pm on the day indicated on the ticket itself. The actual time validity begins when the ticket is validated.
