Is an Öresundståg ticket from Sweden valid on the metro and buses in Copenhagen?

One ticket for the train and the city.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Yes, a single Öresundståg ticket for a journey to or from Denmark is also valid on public transport in zones 1, 3 and 4. It covers the S-trains, Movia city buses, the Harbour Bus and the Metro for the travel day printed on the ticket, from 00.00 to 23.59. If you arrive at Copenhagen Airport at 10.00, you can ride in these zones until 23.59 that day. On the day you leave, the ticket is valid from 00.00 until the train departs.

Why

  1. You do not need a separate city ticket in zones 1, 3 and 4.
  2. The ticket works for the whole travel day.
  3. It covers metro, S-trains, city buses and the Harbour Bus.

Details

From Copenhagen, a ticket from a zone 1, 3 or 4 station is valid on any Öresundståg on the same line within three hours before or after the departure on the ticket.

Tip

Keep your train ticket on your phone or in your pocket all day, as it is your ticket for the metro and buses too.

What may differ

The rule applies to single tickets; period cards and travel funds follow their own rules.

Common misconception

A train ticket from Sweden is only valid on the train, so you must buy a new ticket for the metro.

What actually happens

A single ticket to Denmark also covers metro, S-trains and city buses in zones 1, 3 and 4 that day.
