How to Book Tebrau Shuttle Train Tickets to Johor Bahru

Written by Ganjar

Traveling to Johor Bahru, Malaysia from Singapore offers a convenient option: the train. Currently, the KTMB Shuttle Tebrau is the primary train service that crosses the border.

The KTMB Shuttle Tebrau journey starts at Woodlands Train Station in Singapore and arrives at JB Sentral in Malaysia, and the reverse route is also available. Remarkably, the journey duration is quite brief, lasting only about 5 minutes.

For those interested in traveling to Johor Bahru via the KTMB Shuttle Tebrau, I have compiled a detailed guide in the article below.

This guide focuses on the process of acquiring train tickets, providing insights into both online and in-person purchases at the station's ticket counter. Let's explore the steps to secure your tickets.

Purchasing at the Ticket Counter

First off, you can buy KTMB Shuttle Tebrau tickets through the ticket counter. This counter is located near the Woodlands Train Checkpoint. The area is well-appointed and staffed with several officers dedicated to helping with ticket purchases.

When buying tickets at this counter, you need to present your passport for identification. The officer will ask about the number of travelers and your preferred departure time. Once these details are recorded, you can proceed to payment.

One thing to note, though, children under the age of four travel free on the Tebrau Shuttle. However, they must still be reported to the ticketing officer for passenger record-keeping.

The ticket purchasing process at the counter is generally fast and easy. But be aware that during peak times or on certain days, tickets might be sold out due to high online booking volumes.

Booking Online via the Official Website

To ensure ticket availability, booking online through the KTMB's official website can be a smart choice. This allows you to select your travel date up to six months in advance. The following outlines the steps for online booking:

1. Visit KTMB's Official Site

Visit the KTMB website through this link. Once there, click on the "Shuttle Tebrau" section to access the specific page dedicated to purchasing Shuttle Tebrau tickets.

2. Submit Your Journey Details

Here, you'll need to input your travel information. Start by filling in the "Origin" field with your departure station and the "Destination" field with your arrival station. For instance, if you're departing from Singapore, enter "Woodlands CIQ" as the origin and "JB Sentral" as the destination.

Then, specify your desired departure date in the "Departure Date" field. If you're planning a round trip, enter your return date in the "Return Date" field. For those only needing a one-way ticket, simply select the "I'm Traveling One Way" option.

Finally, input the number of tickets you wish to purchase in the "Pax" field. You have the option to select tickets for up to six passengers in one transaction. Once all the information is accurately entered, click on the "Search" button to proceed.

3. Select Your Departure Schedule

After choosing your travel date, you'll be directed to a page listing the available Tebrau Shuttle train journeys for that day. This page provides essential information, such as trip numbers, departure and arrival times, journey duration, ticket prices, and the availability of seats.

Choose a journey that has seats open for booking. If a train is fully booked, you'll see "Sold Out" on the button to the right. For trains with seats still available, the button will be yellow and labeled "Select".

4. Enter Passenger Personal Details

Next, fill in the personal information for all passengers. Required details include the name as it appears on the passport, passport number, the expiry date of the passport, contact number, gender, and the type of ticket.

On this website, you can only select adult tickets. If you are traveling with a child under 4 years old, a ticket is not required for them. However, you must inform the staff at the ticket counter about the child before boarding.

Ensure that all information entered is accurate. Incorrect details may lead to being denied boarding by the staff. Once you have verified the data, click on the "Proceed to Payment" button to finalize your booking.

5. Process the Payment

On the next page, you'll see a summary of your ticket order. Verify that all the details are accurate. Then, choose from the available payment options, which include KTM Wallet, Touch 'n Go Wallet, Boost, debit card, or a Visa or Mastercard credit card.

Proceed to pay using your selected method. For instance, when I used a Visa credit card, the transaction was processed smoothly.

6. Save Your Purchase Confirmation

Once your payment is successfully processed, a purchase confirmation will be sent to your email. It's important to save this confirmation for future reference, in case any issues arise.

On your travel day, there's no need to present this proof of purchase at the station. Simply bring your passport, as your booking details are already in the system. KTMB officers will check your passport at the train station for verification.

And there you have it, the complete guide to purchasing KTMB Shuttle Tebrau tickets, whether online or in person. Are you excited for your journey on this train?
