As such, the compulsory wearing of masks, respect for social distancing in stations and onboard trains, reinforced and continuous cleaning and disinfection of trains and shared spaces in stations, the provision of the gel-hydro alcoholic in stations and on trains …

In addition, and in order to regulate the frequency of trains and allow compliance with the rules of physical distance onboard, the Office applies the exceptional measure to reduce their sales and occupancy capacity to 50% during this phase and this, with the compulsory reservation on all trains.

Travelers are required to comply with the provisions laid down by the authorities with regard to the presentation of their National Identity Card when purchasing travel tickets. As a result, they are invited to purchase their tickets from Monday 22 June 2020 at stations and through the various ONCF sales channels.

In addition, it provides them with all the necessary information via the various official channels (websites, Customer Relations Center 2255, ONCF – TRAFIC mobile application and social media pages) to keep them constantly informed on trains as well as on all the measures taken and new travel rules to be observed.
