Fines
Validation of the fine
- If during the ticket control on train, a passenger cannot present a ticket/multi-journey card or a valid ticket/multi-journey card of Hellenic Train, although he/she has been boarded from a station with a ticket office in operation, a single fine of 10 euros is imposed immediately in addition to the price of the ticket (full fare or discounted) of the route the passenger intends to travel. Otherwise, a fine of EUR 50 shall be imposed in addition to the price of the one-way ticket. The passenger has the right to pay the fine within 60 days without further increase.
For interoperable tickets/cards (smart tickets) issued in cooperation with OASA, the OASA penalty policy applies.
More specifically:
- €100 for passengers subject to full fare
- €50 for passengers entitled to reduced fare
The imposed fine of one hundred (€100) may be reduced by fifty percent (50%), i.e. to fifty euros (€50), provided that the offender, within an exclusive period of ten (10) calendar days from the date the violation is confirmed, proceeds with the purchase and activation of a personalized unlimited travel card with a validity period of at least thirty (30) days.
A corresponding reduction also applies to passengers entitled to reduced fare, i.e. the fine is reduced from €50 to €25, upon the purchase and activation of a reduced personalized unlimited travel card.
The passenger has the right to pay the fine within sixty (60) days without any additional surcharge.
