Ukrzaliznytsia announced that it is introducing verification via Diia.Signature for ticket purchases on only three trains, UNN reports.
We listened to passengers and changed the number of routes for which we are introducing verification via Diia.Signature in test mode from August 1. This is necessary to prevent abuse and combat ticket speculators.
According to Ukrzaliznytsia, identity confirmation will be required when purchasing tickets for the following domestic routes:
1. No. 29/30 Kyiv — Uzhhorod,
2. No. 12 Lviv — Odesa,
3. No. 27/28 Kyiv — Chop.
Let's add
To purchase or return tickets for these trains, passengers will need to verify their account in the Ukrzaliznytsia application.
To ensure access to these tickets for passengers who do not have new-style passports or the ability to renew them, we are also keeping ticket sales for these trains available at a number of specific ticket offices:
⁃ in Chop (ticket office No. 2);
⁃ in Uzhhorod (ticket office No. 2);
⁃ in Lviv (ticket office No. 1);
⁃ in Odesa (ticket offices No. 14 and No. 2);
⁃ in Kyiv (ticket offices No. 21 and 22).
We are closely monitoring the results of the pilot launch to decide whether to expand the practice to other routes.
