Public transport fares in the Île-de-France are set using a system of concentric fare zones radiating from central Paris, and are implemented with a mixture of paper and electronic tickets. Prices are determined by Île-de-France Mobilités, the regional autorité organisatrice de transports ("Regional Transport Organisational Authority"). As of August 2021, single tickets within Paris cost €1.90, and monthly passes covering all fare zones cost €75.20.

Navigo
Navigo is a smartcard on which passes valid for a day, a week, a month, or a year may be loaded. Navigo cards are available to people living or working in Île-de-France, and have a photo of the user printed on them. Navigo Découverte cards are available to everyone at a cost of €5, and must be personalized by attaching a passport sized photograph before being valid for use. Passes can be loaded with the following passes:


 * A day pass (Forfait Navigo Jour), valid for one day within the chosen fare zones (between two and five zones). As of December 2022, the cheapest day ticket, valid for 2 zones (e.g. zones 1–2) costs €7.50, and a ticket for all zones (zones 1–5) costs €17.80. This ticket can also be loaded onto a Navigo Easy pass (which is not personalized), and an equivalent ticket is available at the same prices in paper form (Forfait Mobilis), on which name and date need to be written by hand before use. For people under 26 years old, a cheaper day pass is available on Saturdays and Sundays (Forfait Navigo Jeunes Week-end); this ticket was known as Ticket Jeunes (in paper form) until 2019.
 * A week pass (Forfait Navigo Semaine), valid from Monday to Sunday, available for all zones (zones 1–5) for €22.80, or for zones 2–3, 3–4, or 4–5 for a reduced price. The ticket can be purchased starting on Friday of the previous week (with its validity starting on Monday) until the Thursday of the week of validity (with validity ending on Sunday).
 * A month pass (Forfait Navigo Mois), valid for 1 calendar month (from the first to the last day of the month), available for all zones (zones 1–5) for €75.20, or for zones 2–3, 3–4, or 4–5 for a reduced price. They are sold starting at the 20th of the prior month.
 * An annual pass (Forfait Navigo Annuel), valid for 12 months starting from the first of a chosen month. Its monthly cost is the same as the Forfait Navigo Mois, but the 12th month is free. Annual passes are not available on the Navigo Découverte card.

For a journey to be valid, the pass must include all zones from the origin to the destination, including all zones passed through (even if no interchange is made there). Monthly and annual passes issued for two zones are valid for all zones on weekends, public holidays, and from mid-July to mid-August. The ticket can be used for any number of journeys on any form of public transport in the region (except Orlyval).

Prior to 2009, passes were sold on a carte orange with a magnetic strip. Until 2011, annual passes were previously sold under the name Carte Intégrale.
