Frequently Asked Questions

I heard somewhere that students travel for free in the Netherlands, is that true?

That would be the dream but, unfortunately, that is not the case. It is true that students who are eligible for 'study finance' can also use the "Student Travel Product" provided by the government. However, very few international students are eligible for this. You can check here if you are: https://duo.nl/particulier/student-travel-product/apply.jsp

Are the Student Mobility Card and the ISIC card the same? How does it work?

The Student Mobility Card is only for travelling throughout the Dutch public transport system. In addition to the mobility card, you also receive a complimentary digital ISIC card. Once your mobility card has been shipped to you, you'll receive an activation link for your ISIC card. The ISIC card is an official student ID and provides access to an extensive discount network worldwide. In short, they are two separate products.

How does the Student Mobility Card work and how do I pay for my travels?

With the Student Mobility Card, you can access public transport in the Netherlands and make use of the OV-bikes. Before traveling, you have to register your card in the Student Mobility App, connect a valid payment method and pick up the travel products at an OV-device. To do so, follow the instructions on your leaflet. After picking up the travel products, you are ready to travel. From then on, the app will show you your travel transactions and travel costs. We'll charge your bank account or credit card on a regular basis.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the process after I opted for a train voucher?

After we've charged you, you will receive a personal voucher within 2-5 business days. We will send this via mail and you will have to redeem your voucher here.

What is the difference between "off peak" and "all hours"?

As it gets rather busy in the trains during peak hours, the train company incentivizes travelling during "off-peak". With this ticket you can travel during the following hours:

- Monday to Friday; between 9 AM and 4 PM and between 6:30 PM and 6:30 AM

- During the entire weekend; between Friday 6:30 PM and Monday 6:30 AM

How do I check if the voucher is beneficial to me?

The vouchers have a fixed price. You could check what the standard price is for a ticket from the machine/desk for your journey, add 1 EUR to that as that is the surcharge for a ticket at the machine. Check the price of your journey here.

I received my voucher after arrival in the Netherlands, what do I do?

That is not a problem, just save it for your next (long) train journey. The (unredeemed) voucher is valid until December 2022.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after I sign-up to your bike-program?

Student Mobility is not the supplier of the bikes. Instead, we have carefully selected the best suppliers for both buying and leasing a bike. After signing up, you will receive an email with all the information you need to place your order and receive your new travel companion.

How does leasing a bike work?

Leasing a bike is a very popular option among students in the Netherlands. You will get a bike for a fixed amount per month and do not have to stress about possible damage or malfunctions. Instead, in the case of an issue, the lease company will take care of it. Just note that there are "own risk" amounts for certain occasions, e.g. theft.
