The Sai Gon Railway Transport JSC has announced its policy for exemption and reduction on train tickets for children.

Children under 6 years old are exempt from train fares for Tet 2023

Accordingly, children under 6 years old are exempted from 100% of train fares, and they are required to share the same seat with their accompanied adults. Each adult is allowed to accompany no more than 2 children who are exempt from ticket prices.

When an adult passenger travels with more than 2 children under 6 years old, the 3^rd child or more must buy a child ticket. In case an adult passenger needs to get a separate seat for a child who is exempt from train fares, he/she must buy a child ticket.

In addition, the railway industry is offering a 25% discount on children tickets for those aged 6 to 10 years old.

Adult passengers accompanied by children who are eligible to purchase children tickets can purchase tickets for extra child seats. However, adult passengers must have a ticket for a bed or a seat and voluntarily agree to write in a pre-printed request form with the content "Recommend to buy a ticket for an extra child seat and ensure the safety of children when sharing a place with adults”.

Each adult passenger ticket can be purchased with a child ticket with an extra seat, and a child is arranged to use the same seat with the accompanying adult.
