The student ticket will undergo significant modifications for the 2025 school year. From then on, a new group of students will benefit from this discount on public transportation costs. These modifications will affect students at different educational levels throughout the country.
In the 2025 school year, the free student ticket will be expanded to include higher education students from both public and privately funded institutions. The measure, approved by the Buenos Aires Legislature, will benefit those attending universities, technical colleges, teacher training institutes, and vocational training centers within the City of Buenos Aires.
To access the new benefit, students must live in the city and belong to households categorized as "poor," "vulnerable middle class," or "fragile middle class," according to data from the Buenos Aires Institute of Statistics and Censuses.
Regarding the process to apply for the student ticket in CABA, students must visit the official website, register, and schedule an appointment to complete the procedure. Required documents include the student's ID, proof of CUIL, a nominated SUBE card, a certificate of regular student status, among others.
Once the data is verified at the community offices and the requirements are met, a new personal and non-transferable student SUBE card will be issued. This card must be activated through the SUBE Automatic Terminals available at the community offices in order to enjoy the special fare.
In summary, starting from the 2025 school year, the free student ticket in the City of Buenos Aires will be expanded to include higher education students, facilitating access to public transportation for a greater number of beneficiaries.
