A combined De Lijn-NMBS subscription

Your employer's contribution is calculated based on the flat-rate amounts for the train.

Your employer contributes based on the flat-rate amounts included in Article 3 of CAO 19/9. These flat-rate amounts depend on the number of kilometers stated on the subscription.

If the distance is unknown, the contribution is calculated based on 71.8% of the actual paid price (CAO 19/9).

71.8% is the minimum mandatory contribution by your employer. The sector in which you work may also establish different rules regarding this contribution. However, it will never be lower than the mandatory 71.8%.

A combination of different transportation tickets

If you use a combination of De Lijn with one or more other public transport modes and have different tickets for them, it is calculated as follows:

• Your employer calculates their contribution separately for each mode of transport;
• The amounts are then added together.

For example:

You have a train subscription costing 700 euros per year and a bus subscription costing 339 euros per year. The mandatory employer contribution is then at least 71.8%

• on the bus subscription;
• the flat-rate amounts included in Article 3 of CAO 19/9 on the train subscription.
