Hi!

To be eligible for an InterRail pass with country of residence Germany you have to proof at least a six month continuous stay in Germany. That means in your case, that you wont be able to use InterRail...sorry. 8)

But have a look at [ux]https://rail.shop/bahn[/ux] - besides the usual offers there are some jubilee-passes this year since the 175th anniversary of railway in Germany, maybe there's something suitable for you?

But i want to use interrail as a citizen of Turkey. So due to the fact that i dont stay in germany at least 6 months, i can buy interrail ticket by showing residence place as Turkey, isn't it?

Oh, in that case...no problem to buy a Turkish InterRail pass and travel with it in Germany. :)

Sorry, a little confused today.. ||

Hi!

Germany is a very InterRailer friendly country. You can use long distance trains (IC, EC, ICE [except the few Sprinter services,...) without any supplements. Moreover, InterRail is valid on most private railways as well.

You will only need a reservation when going over night with one of the CNL trains: [u]https://rail.cc/en/night-train/germany/de[/u]

hi!
i am trying to buy interrail ticket online but the system said that 'We are sorry, but your Payment has failed the transaction.
We have received your order and will keep it on hold, but are still awaiting payment before the booking can be processed. ' and ' Order Status: PENDING Your order is waiting for payment! ' So what should i do now? Should i try to pay it again or wait?

Hi!

I'd say wait. And contact Peter directly by PM, he will help you out with all the details. :)
