📋 Tender Overview
MYANMA Railways is preparing to implement an Online Ticketing and Payment (ORTP) system, which will be piloted on passenger trains operating along the Yangon-Mandalay route to make ticket purchasing more convenient.
Passengers travelling on the Yangon-Nay Pyi Taw-Mandalay route on trains No 7 Up/8 Down, No 31 Up/ 32 Down DEMU, and No 27 Up /28 Down RBE can register by contacting the designated station phone numbers for their desired route starting five days before the travel date.
At the time of registration, if a Myanma Railways official confirms that a seat is available for the passengers itinerary, the passenger may pay the ticket fare via Viber using any online payment method or MMQR code. After making the payment, the passenger must take a screenshot of the transaction and send it to the Viber account of the railway staff who handled the call. Once the staff member receives proof of payment, the passenger will be provided with the train and seat number according to the itinerary.
In addition, passengers must arrive at the station one hour before departure, pay at the ticket booth, and present proof of identity to collect their train tickets. Travellers may also report any incidents of overcharging or illegal ticket sales by calling the designated Myanma Railways phone numbers.
