China Train Tickets Change<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the change policy of China Railway, the departure date, train number, seat or sleeper type can be changed only once before the train departs. The departure station and arrival station cannot be changed.<\/p>\n

The ticket can be changed only once. If passengers still want to change the ticket after changing once, passengers have to cancel the former ticket and buy a new one.<\/p>\n

Tickets can only be changed successfully in the case that there are unoccupied tickets available.<\/p>\n

If the ticket is booked online and is not printed, it can be changed online 30 minutes before the train departure. If you have booked the ticket from us, you need to inform us 24 hours in advance because we will need some time to process it and the official website is not available during the night.  Once the tickets have been printed out, they can only be changed at the train station.<\/p>\n

If the ticket is printed, it can only be changed at the ticket window of the train station with the passport of the ticket holder and E-ticket number.
\nThe ticket can be changed to other trains 48 hours before the train departure. Within 48 hours, the ticket can only be changed to the train departing before 24:00 on the same day.<\/p>\n
