Purchase student tickets

Cannot. The student ID is not a valid identity document for real name ticket purchases.
If you only have a student ID card and do not bring your ID card, you can quickly apply for an "electronic temporary boarding identity certificate" on the 12306 APP or go to the public security certification window at the station to apply for a paper temporary boarding identity certificate.
ask
Can I only purchase student tickets during winter and summer vacations?
No, no, no! Currently, it is not limited to purchasing during winter and summer vacations. Students who meet the conditions each academic year can purchase four one-way student discount tickets between their home residence and the location of their institution. Student tickets can be purchased at any time throughout the year.
Attention: The discounted ride times are valid for use in the academic year. The number of times the next academic year cannot be used in the current academic year, and unused rides in the current academic year cannot be kept for use in the next academic year.
ask
What if the discount range does not match or the number of discounts exceeds when purchasing student tickets online?
Student tickets should be completed at the ticket window of the station with the original valid ID and student discount card.
ask
Can primary and secondary school students purchase student tickets?
Sure. As long as the family's residence and school location are not in the same city, a written proof stamped with the school seal can be used to purchase student discount tickets.
ask
Can new students and graduates purchase student tickets?
New students can enter the station and board the train through the manual ticket inspection channel with the admission notice and valid identification documents used when purchasing tickets.
ask
How many discounts can be deducted from purchasing a connecting ticket?
When purchasing a connecting ticket within the discount range, the number of discounted rides will be deducted once. Students who exceed the discount range will not be eligible for student discount tickets.
Attention everyone!
Intermodal tickets only have one discount deducted, but it is important to pay attention to the continuity of purchasing segments, otherwise it may result in multiple discounts deducted.
For example:
Scenario 1: The student discount range is A-E. If you purchase A-B, then purchase B-D and D-E, you will receive one deduction.
Scenario 2: The student discount range is A-E. If you purchase A-B and then purchase D-E, there will be a deduction of 2 times. However, if you purchase B-D later and complete the continuation, you can appeal on the 12306 APP or call 12306 to appeal..
ask
Do I need to verify before purchasing student tickets every time?

Passengers who meet the conditions for purchasing student discount tickets should complete the verification of their student discount qualifications online or go to the designated ticket window or automatic ticket vending/pickup machine at the station to complete the verification procedures for their resident identity documents and student discount cards.
Passengers who have gone through the verification procedures and purchased tickets can self apply for real name verification and station entry and exit ticket inspection with their resident identity documents. Passengers who purchase student tickets should bring their student ID and discount vouchers with them before boarding the train, so that railway staff can verify them at the station and on the train.
Regarding interval filling
ask
How should I fill in the discount range when there are multiple train stations in the location of the school?
The student discount card interval should be filled in as the station name on the 12306 website, not the place name of the location. Suggest filling in the large train station where the family or school is located.
For example, if the school is in Beijing and the home is in Chengdu, the interval should be filled in as follows: "Beijing West" - "Chengdu East" instead of Beijing Chengdu. If you fill in "Beijing West" - "Chengdu East" in the interval, you can buy tickets for both "Beijing West Chengdu East" and "Beijing West Chengdu West", which can be purchased at stations in the same city.
ask
Can the student discount range be changed?
Can be changed. After confirmation by the school, the official seal will be affixed to the travel area on the student ID card, and the relevant information on the train ticket discount card will be modified.
Regarding ticket refunds
ask
How is the handling fee deducted for student ticket refunds?
The refund fee for student tickets is the same as that for full price tickets. If the passenger is unable to board the train as agreed due to their own reasons, the ticket will be refunded according to the following principles:
ask
Can I change it to a student ticket if I have already purchased the full price ticket?
Full price tickets cannot be changed to student tickets and require a refund before purchasing again. Refunds will be charged according to existing regulations.
ask
Will the number of discounts be refunded after the student ticket is refunded?
After the student ticket is refunded, the number of discounts will be refunded; But for those who purchase connecting student tickets, if only a portion of the connecting ticket is refunded, the number of discounts will not be refunded. If there is any objection to the number of deductions, an appeal can be made for the use of discounted times.
