Hi,

I'm looking to go for a weeks travel with my family and am confused by the OV-chipkaart..

I know i need to get an Anonymous card, but do i need to get one for each member of my family? Or can i just get one and pay for all 6 people's (4 adults, 2 kids) tickets/journeys on one?

Thanks

Robbie

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

Unfortunately, you will need individual cards for each person travelling; don't forget that each person has to check-in and check-out of the bus/train.

Hope this helps.
