The
City of Buenos Aires
will have its 2023 school year between February 27 and December 22.
The year started with a sharp increase in public transport fares, but many students will not be affected since they will be able to
travel for free
between home and school, with the
Student Ticket
.
In the Capital, as in the Province of Buenos Aires, this benefit allows
some students
-not all- to use the main means of transportation without paying a ticket.
It is a subsidy that is implemented
through a
special SUBE card and to take advantage of it it is necessary to carry out a procedure every year, in certain cases in person.
Who
is entitled to receive this benefit in the City
?
What
conditions
and what
limits
does it have?
How is the management to obtain it for
the first time
and what should
those who already had it from previous years do to
renew it ?
In this note, an
updated guide
with answers to the
main questions
about the Student Ticket and everything you need to process it.
With the student ticket, students will be able to travel for free in buses and other means of transportation.

Who can access the Student Ticket in the City of Buenos Aires?
The benefit is limited to students of the Initial levels (4 and 5 year old rooms), Primary and Secondary who attend a
public school
of the City or a
private one with 100% subsidy
(those that do not charge fees).
It is also granted to public school students of
Special Education
and to those who are finishing high school in
Vocational Training Centers
1 Barracas, 4 Mataderos, 6 Parque Chacabuco, 7 Incucai Núñez, 10 CEC and 34 Salesianos.
CABA Student Ticket: what does the benefit consist of and what days and times can it be used?
The Student Ticket allows up to
50 free monthly trips
-with a maximum of 4 per day- in
buses
,
subways
and the
Premetro
, throughout the metropolitan region (Capital and GBA).
The benefit is only available from
Monday to Friday
, every day between 5:00 and 23:59.
This throughout
the school year
and until December 30, with the sole exception of winter holidays.
How is the Student Ticket processed for the first time in CABA?
At any time of the year you can go to buenosaires.gob.ar/boletoestudiantil, fill out the
registration form
and
request an appointment
to do the process in person at a Community Office.
The student must attend the appointment with their
ID , a
regular student
certificate
and the current SUBE card (if they have one in their name), to receive the
Student SUBE
for free .
This card, before the first use, and for the only time, must
be activated
by supporting it in one of the
SUBE
Automatic Terminals that are in the Communal Headquarters, in the train stations and other points.
To find out which is the closest you can enter this link.
Before the first use, you have to look for a SUBE terminal to activate the card.

How can those who used the Student Ticket last year renew it?
Those who have a Student SUBE processed in previous years
do not need to re-register
or complete the process.
To
reactivate the subsidy
, they only have to support the card in a SUBE Automatic Terminal.
Can the Student SUBE be used on non-school days and times?
yes
.
You can load balance and use it as if it were a common SUBE,
without the subsidy
.
The same happens when you exceed 50 bonus tickets each month.
For their part, those who have
a Social Rate
can also take advantage of it with the SUBE Estudiantil to travel at less than half the cost when free does not apply.
Will the student's family members also be able to travel for free with the SUBE Estudiantil?
No. The card is
personal and non-transferable
, which means that it should only be used by its holder.
That is, the student.
If someone else uses it, they run the risk of having
the benefit suspended
and of receiving a
criminal complaint
, according to a warning from the City Government.
The procedure is done once and allows you to travel without paying until the end of the year.

Is the Student SUBE used to travel for free on Capital trains and the GBA?
No.

To get on the trains of the Sarmiento, Miter, San Martín and Belgrano Sur lines free of charge or with a discount, you have to do a separate procedure.
