Essential for using public transport or visiting events.
Contexto cultural
Estonians value digital solutions. Most people buy tickets via the 'Pilet.ee' app or by scanning a QR code. Public transport is free for residents. If you are a visitor, you need a 'Smartcard' (Ühiskaart) or a contactless bank card. For events like the Song Festival, tickets are often sold through 'Piletilevi', the largest ticket network in the country. Buying a ticket on the train from the conductor is about 10-20% more expensive than buying it online or at the station.
Use the App
Most Estonians will tell you to download the 'Pilet.ee' app. It's often easier than finding a physical kiosk.
Kust vs Kus
Always use 'Kust' when you are getting something from a place. Using 'Kus' is the most common beginner mistake.

Add 'Vabandage'
Starting with 'Vabandage' (Excuse me) makes the request much more natural and polite.
Contactless is King
In Tallinn buses, you can just tap your bank card on the validator. You don't even need to ask where to buy a ticket!

Preguntas frecuentes
