DDifficulty 2/5

A blind person travels with a guide dog recognised as an assistance dog and meets the required hygiene, health and safety conditions. May the person board a public bus with the dog?

Correct answer

Yes, the person has the right to board with the guide dog.

Yes. The user has the right to access collective transport with the assistance dog. No additional ticket or payment may be required for the dog, which does not count as a passenger place or towards a dog quota. This right is not limited to guide dogs: it also covers other assistance dogs recognised under the applicable rules. The relevant identification, hygiene and safety conditions must be met.
