Severely disabled people who have a recognized degree of disability (GdB) of at least 50 and have recognized a significant walking disability (G), exceptional walking disability (aG), helplessness (H), blindness (Bl) and/or deafness (Gl) as a sign of disability can receive a supplementary sheet with a token for free local public transport. The "B" mark can also be applied for in the initial or new application.

If the signs G, aG and/or Gl are recognized, the supplementary sheet with token is subject to a charge.

If the H and/or Bl mark is recognized, the supplementary sheet with token is free of charge.

If you receive the following benefits, the supplementary sheet with token is also free of charge:

• Subsistence assistance in accordance with Chapter III of the twelfth Social Code (SGB XII)
• Basic income support in accordance with Chapter IV of the twelfth Social Code (SGB XII)
• Receipt of benefits in accordance with the Second Social Code (SGB II)

Proof of receipt of the above-mentioned benefits must be provided by means of a current notification from the office providing the benefits.

Persons with severe disabilities are entitled to take an accompanying person with them when using public transport if they are regularly dependent on assistance from others to avoid danger to themselves or others as a result of their disability. A case-by-case assessment is always carried out!

A payment slip is automatically sent to the applicant for the supplementary sheet, which is subject to a charge.

If the H and/or Bl mark is recognized, the supplementary sheet with token is free of charge and can be requested in writing or by telephone from the Office for Care and Integration. Once it has been issued for the first time, the supplementary sheet will be sent automatically in subsequent years. No further application is required!

The supplementary sheet is also free of charge if you receive benefits for subsistence according to Chapter III or basic security according to Chapter IV of the German Social Security Code (SGB XII) or benefits according to SGB II (Hartz 4).

The supplementary sheet must be reapplied for each time (if possible 4 weeks before expiry).

The free supplements are generally valid for 12 months.

If the "H" and/or "Bl" signs are recognized, they are automatically sent to the citizen shortly before the expiry date.
