Overview
- The City confirmed the registered SUBE subway fare will rise from $1,558 to $1,621 and non‑registered cards will face a higher per‑ride price of about $2,541, with the change taking effect Wednesday, July 1.
- The 4.1% adjustment comes from the city’s indexation rule that applies May’s IPC (2.1%) plus 2 percentage points to monthly fares.
- Social and student concessions remain in place with the Tarifa Social at about $567 and the student fare at $226, and automatic frequent‑user discounts of 20%, 30% and 40% kick in after 20, 30 and 40 monthly trips respectively.
- The rise is part of a coordinated round of transport updates that also affects many bus lines and tolls from July 1 and follows Trenes Argentinos’ June fare table update; several banks and payment apps are offering temporary reimbursements and QR/NFC promos to soften costs through August.
- Some municipalities, such as San Miguel de Tucumán, have already approved larger local increases (to $1,700) but those tariffs await SUBE validator updates before they take effect, and cumulative subway hikes this year have exceeded about 30%, increasing pressure on household budgets.
