You do not need to be a pupil, student or teacher to apply for an IYTC card. The card is automatically deactivated, i.e. ceases to be valid, also when the person turns 31 years old.

The IYTC Youth card has been issued for over 25 years and is recognized by more than 50 countries around the world.

The IYTC Youth card is a discount card with the reference of the UNESCO Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.


Two different IYTC cards are issued in Estonia:

IYTC Youth as a standard card

The standard IYTC Youth card, which proves the status of a young person internationally. Discounts are extended to all ISIC, ITIC and IYTC cards both in Estonia and abroad. In addition, when registering, the card functions as a common card in public transport.

IYTC Youth card as a virtual card

The IYTC virtual card is always with you in your phone. A cardthat saves the environment and does not disappear. Virtuaalkaardi abil saad sa tõendada enda nooruki staatust ning samuti on sul võimalik saada tuhandeid soodustusi nii Eestis kui ka välismaal.

If you already have a physical ISIC/ITIC/IYTC standard card or bank card, you can make it virtual - without any extra charge!

To do this, you need the ISIC mobile application (Android or iOS) and the serial number from your IYTC card (number sequence above your picture). The unique serial number must be entered in the mobile application according to the given instructions.

Please note that the IYTC virtual card cannot be used on public transport or with door access systems.
