The fees for the carriage of luggage and express goods were paid according to the price table of the Deutsche Reichsbahn. This development was completed on 1 May 1941 with the release of the new passenger tariff of the BMB, which provides for the takeover of the German passenger tariff and the Erfurt price table. The new regulation represents a fundamental change in that the former season zone tariff (lower unit rates at longer distances) was replaced by a pure mileage tariff (same unit rate for all distances). Taking into account the wage ratios in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, a 20 % discount was granted for the fares of the working-class tickets. On 1 May 1941, in exchange with the Deutsche Reichsbahn and in the individual international passenger, luggage and express goods union tariffs, the calculation of the transport prices according to the Erfurt price table for the entire route was introduced. After the abolition of the customs border and the fundamental alignment of prices in Bohemia and Moravia to those of the rest of the empire are on 1 January 1941. On 1 January 1941, the German tariff on goods and on 1 May 194i the German animal tariffs were generally taken over by the BMB, in the form of the tariff for goods and animals published as a framework tariff of the Protectorate Railways of Bohemia and Moravia. A number of deviating or additional provisions were introduced to supplement or amend the German tariffs on goods and animals wherever the transfer to the German tariff system or tariff scheme did not appear to be possible. On the occasion of the takeover of the German tariffs on goods and animals, 54 special tariffs and charges for transport within Bohemia and Moravia have been taken over and 82 special tariffs for transport with the rest of the Kingdom. At the same time as in inland transport of BMB, the same German tariff components were also introduced in exchange for the rest of the Reich under the principle of continuous freight calculation. Since that time, after the abolition of the former German-Bohemian-Mauritian tariff and under the greatest possible alignment of the common Bohemian-Moravian internal tariff, both the tariff scheme and the tariff level of the German tariffs have been applied throughout the Greater German transport area. For the management of the shipments in traffic between Bohemia and Moravia and the rest of the Reich, as well as in traffic of the remaining Reich over the lines of the protectorate railways, new loading and line regulations were issued on 1 January 1941. After the abolition of the direct association tariffs for the transport of the former Czechoslovakia with the A u s l a n d e, the following special tariff booklets have been issued for the removal of the non-tariff tariff quota for the traffic of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia with foreign countries within the framework of the association rates for the transportation of the rest of the empire with foreign territory: August 1941 Danube envelope tariff Protectorate-Pressburg Hafen.
