Online order of Railway tickets
At the moment, it is possible to purchase railway tickets on the Internet using delayed printing technology, and also, for some directions, it is possible to purchase full-fledged electronic train tickets. Tickets using delayed printing technology must be exchanged at the Ukrzaliznytsia ticket office for a paper ticket before boarding the train. Electronic tickets themselves are travel documents and do not require exchange at the box office for a strict accountability form. The electronic ticket form contains a QR code containing in encrypted form all the necessary information about the trip.
When boarding, the conductor scans the QR code from the printout of the e-ticket form or from the screen of the mobile device and boards the passenger on the train.
