Metro-Train-RER Ticket
Your go-to ticket for navigating Paris by rail - covering metro, RER, and regional trains across all five ĂŽle-de-France zones
What is the Metro-Train-RER Ticket?
Starting January 2025, Paris simplified its rail ticketing with a unified fare: the Metro-Train-RER ticket. Priced at €2.55, this single ticket grants access to metro lines, RER suburban trains, and regional services throughout the greater Paris region (Zones 1-5). It replaces the former t+ metro ticket and zone-based RER fares.
