Save money with the International Student Identity Card

ISIC International Student Identity Card

ISIC International Student Identity Card

Students usually do not have a lot of money so they need to save money wherever it is possible. When you go backpacking you spend a lot of money for entrance, flight tickets, cinema, hostels and many more. Of course, many of you already have a student identity card from your university but if you go abroad your card might not be accepted everywhere. Therefore, you need to have an international student identity card which is called the ISIC. This card saves you a lot of money by discounts and services all over the world. Read more to see how this works.

How to buy your ISIC

You can get your ISIC online or at local spots like travel agencies. Visit the ISIC homepage to see where you can get the Student Card in your city. To be eligible for the ISIC Students Card you must be a fulltime student at school, college or university (prooven by document). If you don’t meet the requirements go to the ISIC page to check other possibilities for a discount card.

It doesn’t matter when you buy your ISIC as the validity is always the same: September til December the following year.

The costs for the Student Card aren’t high. In Eurpoe it costs about 12 Euros. Please check the ISIC page for detailed costs in your specific country. In every case it is worth buying this card as you can save a lot of money in hostels, transportation, entries to museums, telephone cards and many more.
