Train pass for students for a month

The 2017 student travel card can provide significant assistance to any person interested in saving their money. This document is a special student transport card, the number of trips on which is not limited.

Free legal advice:

The document is valid for 5 years. Naturally, any student who wants to save on travel has a justified interest - how much does a student travel card cost?

The cost of this type of service is 3500 rubles. If you have a student pass, you will have a convenient opportunity for free travel on almost all types of public transport in Moscow, be it the metro, bus, trolleybus, tram or electric train. With this card you save more during its validity period.

Applying for a travel pass is quite simple and will not take much of your time. To do this you need:

1. Fill out a form at the MCF branch

2.Submit 2 photos in digital format, taken on a light background

Free legal advice:

3. Provide a photocopy of your passport, which is necessary to include you in the database of your educational institution.

Prepayment is 500 rubles. After meeting all these conditions, you will be able to pay the remaining 3,000 rubles within 10 days and buy a student pass.

For students living in the suburbs or on the outskirts of the capital, we recommend purchasing a single metro ticket, the price of which is also quite low and depends on the tariff you choose. There are several types of such tickets:

A. Disposable (valid for one trip, its price is 55 rubles)

b. Discount Troika card (the price of one trip is 35 rubles)

Free legal advice:

V. Unlimited travel cards of the Unified tariff (these tickets are beneficial for those passengers who travel by metro more than 3 times a day. The train price ranges from 210 rubles per day and 2000 rubles per month of use)

Based on the above, it should be noted Special attention The price of a metro ticket in Moscow depends on how often you plan to use this type of public transport. Tickets of this type are especially beneficial only for those who are forced to travel outside the metro 4-5 times a day.

Past the cash register

From mid-February, a new discounted train ticket will be introduced for students. It is convenient for those who constantly travel to Moscow and back. Now all beneficiaries, including students, have to stand in line at the ticket office every day to buy a one-time discount ticket. In February, full-time students of universities and colleges will be able to sign up for a discounted subscription and ski for a whole month without worries. The number of trips is not limited. True, only along one chosen route.

As told by "RG" official representative Central Suburban Passenger Company (CSPC) Ilya Chernyaev, in order to get the opportunity for unlimited discounted travel, you need to issue an individual plastic card (IPC) for a student. This can be done at any suburban ticket office.

Free legal advice:

To do this, you will need a personal statement, photo, passport, student ID and a certificate from the university. The cost of manufacturing the “plastic” itself is 80 rubles. When the map is ready, all you have to do is name the route (within Moscow) and pay 50% of the monthly subscription. If, for example, to Ramenskoye it costs 2,900 rubles, then with a card it will cost 1,450. Those students who have a Muscovite social card will be able to use it to apply for a discounted subscription, also at suburban railway ticket offices. You must keep the payment receipt. When passing through the turnstile, card holders (both social and individual) will simply apply the “plastic” to the turnstile.

The validity of the card is limited to one paid route. It won't work on others. In addition, the next passage through the turnstile is possible only after 40 minutes - so you can’t take the “hare” with you. And one more limitation - the effect of preferential passes does not apply to satellite electric trains, express trains and Aeroexpress trains, where tickets with seats are provided.

According to Chernyaev, exact date The introduction of a new student travel card has not yet been determined - it is still being tested. This will approximately happen in mid-February.
