Royal Gazette: Fare exemptions, cuts for Bangkok urban rail
Thailand's Cabinet Secretariat published a regulation defining who gets urban rail fare exemptions or 50% discounts. Children up to 7 years old and disabled people pay nothing; seniors (Thai nationals aged 60+) and inactive war veterans get half-price fares. The rules take effect 30 days after publication (September 13, 2026) and apply to rail services in Bangkok and nearby provinces.
