Refund

Please use the online refund form in the following cases:

  • Tickets cannot be cancelled in the sales system. (at the latest 1 month after departure)
  • Requesting a refund for (unused) tickets because the traveler did not travel due to a delay of 60 minutes or more or train cancellations (excluding Eurostar to London).
  • Refund requests Eurostar:

    • Eurostar to London: AOP is not activated for the cancelled or delayed train (60 minutes or more)
    • Eurostar to Belgium/France: AOP is not activated or does not apply to the corresponding outbound or return journey (same DNR)
    • Exchanging with the original departure and destination station is not possible because of engineering works on the route.
    • Exchanging or cancelling in accordance with the fare conditions cannot be carried out in the sales system(opens in new tab)
    • Exchanging because of a cancelled departure or destination station involves extra costs. Leniency is applied
    • Change from Eurostar to Eurostar. Eurostar changes the timetable which results in the time to change trains at Brussel-Zuid/Midi being too short for a connection to London. Leniency is applied.

Attention: In the event of delay, the customer can ask for a refund after the trip. This can be done without intervention of the agent. In this case, the refund will be deposited directly into your customer's account. The only exception is delays on Eurostar to London. A request for compensation can only be made directly to Eurostar.
