What's in it for me?

Cheaper travel on public transport around Scotland (and you won't need help imagining what to do with all the money you save!). Here's what you get:

1/3 off the adult single fare on most buses across Scotland [ click here for details ]
A free Scottish Youth Rail card giving you 1/3 off rail travel [ click here for details ]
2 free return ferry journeys to the mainland each year if you're resident on a Scottish Island [ click here for details ]

And there's more.

In the future, your National Entitlement Card will give you access to other discounts and services being rolled out by your local authority so it's a good idea to keep it safe.

It doesn't cost anything to apply, just the time it takes to fill out an application form and have it validated at your nearest local authority or Young Scot office. (You have to provide a passport-type colour photo of yourself - to appear on your card.)

It's easy to apply - just click through the following simple steps to find out how.
