If you are going to make several trips by train or other public transport you’ll want to get an

OV-chipkaart.

The costs for an OV-chipkaart are €7,50 and the card is valid for 5 years. An excellent reason to plan a

return trip to the Netherlands;-).

In order to travel by train, you’ll need a minimum of €20 on your OV-chipkaart.

Choose your preferred payment method. You can try your usual bank card, but if that doesn’t work you

can pay with credit card as well.

your card.
