The Institut Valencià de la Joventut (IVAJ) has one of the cards that offers the most advantages to young people, and it is not a novelty that has just come out, but a classic that should be remembered every year.
We are talking about the Carnet Jove, a free digital card for young people between 14 and 30 years old that offers discounts on leisure, culture, transport and sports in Valencia and the rest of Europe.
The document, valid for two years, can be downloaded immediately to the cell phone in PDF format after completing the online process.
It is valid throughout Spain and in more than 40 European countries and allows discounts in stores, transport, museums, shows, amusement parks, sports, as well as in activities organized by IVAJ.
Among the registered businesses, which can be consulted on the official website of the Carnet Jove, are stores, driving schools, hairdressers, stores or even accommodation for trips and activities outside Valencia.
In addition, although now the discount on public transport for young people is 50% until December 31, 2025, those who have the Carnet Jove will be able to benefit from a 15% discount in case the measure is not extended in 2026.
In addition to digital use, applicants can pick it up in physical format at city councils and associations of municipalities, or obtain it at IVAJ offices by presenting the registration receipt.
How do I obtain the Carnet Jove? The only requirement to obtain it is to have a valid DNI or NIE, although it can also be processed with a passport following the specific procedure enabled by the IVAJ.
