Getting around / ACROSS CHINA

How do I book a train with a foreign passport?

Start with the official 12306 English site and match your passenger details to your passport.

China Railway’s English booking website accepts valid foreign passports. Follow its registration and identity-verification steps, then enter your passenger details carefully.

Check the exact departure and arrival stations before paying. Bring the original travel document used for the booking; ask station staff for help if an automatic gate cannot read it.
