Vietnam Railways has officially rolled out a new ticketing system utilizing VNeID digital identification, effective from November 9. The initiative modernizes train ticket purchases across the entire domestic rail network by integrating government-issued digital identity verification.
Passengers wishing to use the service must possess a level-2 VNeID account and complete successful login authentication on their mobile devices. The system automatically verifies personal data stored in the digital identity account, eliminating the need for manual entry of passenger information during the booking process.
The automated verification mechanism significantly reduces booking time while simultaneously enhancing security measures. By cross-referencing passenger details against verified government records, the system minimizes fraudulent transactions and ensures accurate traveler documentation.
The new ticketing platform applies to all railway routes operated throughout Vietnam, representing a comprehensive digital transformation of the nation's rail passenger services. The move aligns with Vietnam's broader push to modernize transportation infrastructure and government service delivery through digital innovation.
