Passengers from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who do not have mainland mobile phone numbers can purchase tickets through the network of 12306.

Most tourists from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan don't have mainland mobile phone numbers, so it is troublesome to log in to the backstage of 12306, which is not convenient for online ticket purchase. However, a new policy has been introduced, and you can log in to buy tickets without a mainland mobile phone number.

Passengers from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who don't have mainland mobile phone numbers can also register for tickets themselves through the 12306 network, just like mainland residents.

On June 5438+1October 2 1 day, 2000, the State Administration of Immigration held a press conference in Beijing, and reported the breakthrough progress made by the State Administration of Immigration, the Ministry of Public Security, the State Administration of Market Supervision, China Railway Corporation and other departments 15 since March 2000.

According to Li Jianfeng, director of the Passenger Transport Marketing Department and Passenger Transport Department of China Railway Corporation, according to the requirements of the Work Plan on Promoting the Convenient Application of Entry-Exit Documents, China Railway Corporation attached great importance to it, organized relevant units to formulate plans, and actively carried out technical docking with the strong support of the National Immigration Bureau to promote the convenient application of entry-exit documents in railway transportation.

According to Li Jianfeng, the first is to optimize Internet ticket purchase. At present, 12306 website and mobile phone customers hold Hong Kong and Macao residents' passes to and from the mainland, and have realized the online verification function of identity information when registering in mainland travel permit for taiwan residents. Passengers from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who have not applied for their mobile phone numbers in the Mainland can choose to complete their registration by email, without going to the station window to check and verify their certificates. Registration, ticket purchase and other processes can be handled online like mainland residents.

The second is to go through the formalities of entering and leaving the station smoothly. With the gradual expansion of the application scope of railway e-tickets, up to now, 1020 stations have opened e-ticket business, basically covering high-speed rail and intercity railway. At the early stage of e-ticket design, the railway department considered the convenient application of entry and exit documents, and upgraded and installed new self-service and semi-self-service gates, so that passengers with entry and exit documents can go through the entry and exit procedures of e-tickets with certificates like mainland residents.

The third is to improve relevant self-service. The railway department has carried out large-scale transformation and upgrading of self-service ticket purchasing equipment. At present, about 70% of the equipment supports automatic identification and reading of entry and exit documents, which is convenient for passengers to handle self-service such as printing ticket purchase information sheets and reimbursement vouchers.

Li Jianfeng also mentioned that, in the next step, the railway department will continue to expand the application scope of e-tickets, incorporate the automatic reading of entry and exit documents into relevant equipment standards, and finally realize full coverage of self-service equipment, so that tourists from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese can enjoy the same self-service and convenience services as mainland residents.
