November 1, 2025 marks the first day of the new fare adjustment for the BTS Skytrain Green Line extensions, as announced by the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA). The previous flat rate of 15 baht per trip, which had been in effect for over five years, has now been replaced with a distance-based fare system to better reflect actual operating costs.

The new fare structure covers three main sections:

• Mo Chit (N8) – Khu Khot (N24)
• On Nut (E9) – Kheha (E23)
• Wongwian Yai (S8) – Bang Wa (S12)

Revised fares:

• Single-journey ticket: 17–45 baht
• Rabbit Card (regular): 17–45 baht
• Rabbit Card (student): 12–32 baht (30% discount)
• Rabbit Card (senior citizen): 9–23 baht (50% discount)
• Integrated trips connecting main stations: capped at 65 baht per journey

Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt said that under the previous 15-baht flat rate, the BMA incurred heavy losses. The city spent over 8 billion baht annually on operations but collected only about 2 billion baht in revenue, resulting in a net loss exceeding 6 billion baht per year.

He noted that the fare adjustment is unrelated to the outstanding debt owed by the BMA to its private concessionaire but is necessary to align the fare structure with real operating costs and reduce reliance on taxpayers’ money for subsidies.

Chadchart added that the adjustment does not represent a universal fare increase, as shorter inner-city routes will see lower fares, while longer-distance passengers will pay more according to distance.

He emphasised that the fare restructuring aims to ensure long-term sustainability in managing the Skytrain system and to reduce chronic financial losses, while maintaining discounts for students, university passengers, and senior citizens as part of the city’s social support measures.
