It is essential to have a student STM card, which has the section of the trips correctly registered in the system (origin and destination), to avoid inconveniences. Those who do not have this unit and want to access it must go to the STM Comprehensive Care Centers, located in different parts of Montevideo.
The free recharge applies to the metropolitan, interurban and urban passenger transport services of Canelones and Montevideo, says the ministry.
