Hi. I am a non EU citizen (from Azerbaijan) who is going to have 6 months stay permission (national visa-D) in Germany. Can i buy eurail pass after arriving in Germany? I need eural pass to travel to France, Belgium and Holland at weekends during my 6 months stay in europe. Some articles say, u need to buy eurail pass before arriving in Europe and it can not be bought online. So, lets say i arrive in Germany in april and have visa till november. Can i buy eurail pass in germany in may? Thanks.

Everyone who can't buy an Interrail pass should buy a Eurail pass.
+15You can buy it online at the Eurail website as Mobilepass for your phone. If you want a paper version of the pass you can buy it from DB Ticket offices “DB Reisezentrum” at major stations.
I´ am not working for Eurail or Interrail i just share my knowledge here. Please ask in the Community and not via private message as this is the fastest way to get an answer. I prefer English/German/ Czech for my answers. In case of Reservationquestions please share some details like Route, Date, Trainnumber as otherwise we can just provide general advices or answers

DB say in their terms and conditions they sell paper Eurail passes at these stations:
Berlin Hbf, Berlin Flughafen BER, Dresden Hbf, Düsseldorf Hbf, Frankfurt(M) Hbf, Frankfurt (M) Flughafen, Hamburg Hbf, Hannover Hbf, Heidelberg Hbf, Köln Hbf, Leipzig Hbf, München Hbf, München Flughafen, Stuttgart Hbf.

Hint: check first by yourself If AZ is indeed to buy EUrail-the former ex CCCP and often still Russky angehaucht Nations were told to use INTERRail-that may pose problems for you if you stay longer in DE as then the home-country rule is in force. There is NO pass that lasts for 6 monthes. And maybe/perhaps, if its mainly for doing some weekendtrips out of DE then a reduced bahnCard and booking advance Sparpreistix may work out better/cheaper.
BUt IF you can: then by now only DE and CH (and maybe perhaps AT) are the only countries left where one can buy a paper EUrail right on the spot in a very few major stations/airports.

Please check yourself before you confuse others. It's all on the Eurail website. If you can't bother to check, then please refrain from replying.

You know that this is incorrect, so please don't write such nonsense.
