To apply for the student discount, the valid documentation is a university identification card, which must contain the following information:

1. Name of the University
2. Full Name of the student, the name must match the personal information in your passport
3. Photo of the student
4. Student Identification Number
5. Expiration date (must be valid throughout your trip)

If the university identification card does not possess all of the above mentioned information, the Ministry of Culture will not grant the discount.

Once you have made your reservation, and have registered as a student, you must bring your original university identification card (NOT a copy) to the hike to access the Inka Trail. On the contrary, you will not be able to access the Inka Trail and will loose your permit, as your student registration will be invalid
