Receiving your train tickets
For train travel within Russia
We issue e-tickets for train travel within Russia. Using e-tickets is fast and convenient, and allows you to save on the delivery charges that traditional paper tickets usually involve.
This is a new service introduced by Russian Railways that works in the following way:
1. Reserve your ticket online through GetRussian.com. You will receive a voucher by email that includes your unique e-ticket reservation number.
2. When you arrive at the train station for your departure, exchange the voucher at any ticket desk, or at a self-service ticket terminal, for your printed ticket.
3. You are now ready to board the train.
For international rail travel
If you wish to reserve tickets for international routes (for example, Moscow-Beijing), these tickets will be issued as a paper ticket. This means that, once we have received your payment for the tickets, we can either send the ticket to you, or you can collect in one of our partner offices. In some cities, we can arrange for the tickets to be delivered to your hotel.
