Travel in your own country

We want our Passes to be as flexible as our travellers, so if you're travelling with an Interrail Global Pass, you can now use it to travel in your country of residence during one outbound journey and one inbound journey that occur during travel days at any point in your trip. If you need more than one outbound and inbound journey, you can always buy additional point-to-point tickets from your country’s rail carrier.

All journeys must be made during the overall validity period of your pass. If you have a pass with flexible travel days, such as 10 days within 2 months, and want to use it to leave from or return to your country of residence, those journeys must occur during your travel days. Remember that you have until midnight on each travel day to travel on trains for which your Pass is valid.

In addition to marking your travel days in the travel calendar of your Pass, if you use an outbound or inbound journey during your travel days to leave from or return to your country of residence, you should mark those dates on the special boxes for outbound (leaving) and inbound (returning) in the travel diary that comes with your pass. Keep in mind that the outbound trip to leave your country of residence doesn’t have to come before your inbound journey depending on how you planned your trip.

In order to travel in your country of residence, it must be 1 of the 33 Interrail member countries included in the pass. You can only travel with the railway companies included in the Interrail pass.
