Pražská Integrovaná Doprava (PID)

Single tickets and short-term passes for Prague

There are 30 minute, 90 minute, 24 hour and 72 hour tickets. They are sold by ticket offices at selected metro station, most tobacconists and newsagents in the city, it ticket machines, as well as through the "PID Lítačka" app.

Starting in January 2026, there will be a surcharge for all paper ticket selling channels, so the app is the recommended way to buy the tickets. Each short-term ticket needs to be validated/activated (unless bought via ticket machines on board of the vehicles), and is valid for travel via all modes of transport throughout the entire city of Prague within its validity period.

Long-Term Passes

There are long-term passes, with monthly and yearly variants. The yearly pass for 3650 CZK is especially good value, but even the 550 CZK monthly pass can be a good value for tourists.
The easiest way for a tourist to purchase the pass is to use the "PID Lítačka" mobile app. Once installed, you need to create an account and upload a passport photo to be able to use the app as an identifier for the passes.
