IndRail passes are issued by IR to foreign (i.e., non-Indian) nationals and Indians residing outside India. The pass allows unlimited travel on all regular IR passenger services during its validity (reservations must be made separately). The pass may be purchased for 1st class, A/C sleeper (2-tier or 3-tier) or A/C chair car class, or 2nd class, for varying durations ranging from a half-day pass up to a 90-day pass. A pass for one class is also valid on the lower (i.e. less expensive) classes of travel.
Fares differ for adults and children. [10/99] Adult fares are approximately $90 for a 1-day pass, $370 for a 15-day pass, and $550 for a 30-day pass. (Please check with a travel agent or IR's web site for current prices.) Payment must be in US dollars or other foreign currency, and identification in the form of a passport or other document is required. Travel agents outside India who deal with IR can help make reservations in advance of the pass-holder's journey to India; or else reservations may be made later in India.
