This document entitles you for the discounts your permanent student card does. With your Temporary Student Card you can buy a student monthly pass from one of a Post Office or one of the Local Public Transportation Company (DKV) Office, we list below.
With this monthly pass you can use all public transportation in the city (buses, trams, trolley-buses). You should copy the Educational ID (Oktatási azonosító) number from the Temporary Student ID to the middle of the monthly pass with blue ink.
In case you are a freshman, and you have no Educational ID, you should copy the document’s serial number from the right corner of the document as at the place of Educational ID number you have got only a technical number 79999….
You should also always have a photo ID with you, such as passport or residence permit. The Temporary Student Card is valid for 60 days, please check the expiry date on the top right corner, and request a new one a few days before it expires.
The monthly pass is valid from the 1st of the given month to the 5th of the following month, please keep this in mind (for example from 1st September until 5th October). So if you buy an October monthly pass on 30th September it will not be valid yet, and the controllers may give you a fine, the September monthly pass is not valid on the 6th October.
When the permanent card is ready, we will inform you from where and when you can collect it.
