Twice a year, not during the summer

You cannot switch your subscription between 1 May and 25 August. You can switch your subscription up to twice a year, but not twice within 2 months.

Pick-up date

You can collect your new subscription within 5 working days of the switch. Go to ov-chipkaart.nl to find the nearest service point.

6 weeks to collect

You have 6 weeks to collect your new subscription from a pick-up device. Load your subscription onto your personal OV-chipkaart within those 6 weeks. Once you have collected your new subscription, you can start travelling with it.
