Inspectors in Sofia’s public transport have stopped selling tickets since the beginning of 2021. However, all passengers travelling without a ticket are subject to fines. In June last year, inspectors began selling tickets as a temporary anti-epidemic measure to avoid direct contacts between passengers and drivers. A ticket in Sofia costs 0.82 EUR, whereas the fine for passengers travelling without a ticket amounts to 15.34 EUR.

Drivers will not sell tickets either. The new ticket system in Sofia’s public transport has not been launched in operation yet. Tickets are on sale in offices of the Sofia Urban Mobility Center, in post offices of "Bulgarian Posts" and in offices of the Bulgarian Sports Totalizer.
