Let’s detail how to request your travel discount under the Young Summer 2026 program, aimed at individuals aged 18 to 30. The portal for obtaining a code that provides discounts of up to 90% on train and bus trips is now open. This guide will walk you through the requirements and the step-by-step application process.
The discounts are available for travel tickets booked for the period between July 1 and September 30, 2026. Once the deadline arrives, these discounts will no longer be valid.
Requirements for Discounts
Eligibility criteria must be met in order to apply for these discounts. The requirements are as follows:
- The Young Summer program applies exclusively to trips made between July 1, 2026, and September 30, 2026.
- Applicants must have been born between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 2008, inclusively.
- You must hold Spanish nationality or have legal residency in Spain if you are a foreigner.
How to Request a Young Summer 2026 Discount
To initiate the application process, first visit the official program website at summerjoven.transportes.gob.es. After reaching the site, you’ll need to authenticate yourself. There are two methods available: filling out a personal data form or using the Cl@ve system.
If you opt for the first method, you’ll simply need to fill in your personal details. However, the quickest option is to use the Cl@ve system, which allows you to log in with a digital certificate, such as the FNMT certificate, DNIe, or your Mobile Code.
Regardless of the method chosen, once you’re logged in, you will proceed to the final stages of the application process. The first step involves filling out your personal information—this should be straightforward if you logged in with a certificate. Next, you will need to provide your contact details, including your email address and phone number, before confirming your request.
After completing your application, all you need to do is wait for your data to be verified. You will receive an email or SMS notification about the status of your request, confirming whether you have been accepted and providing a personal code for discount usage.
