If you’re looking for a child or school bus pass in Birmingham, you apply online using the child’s bus pass application form. Birmingham also says you may need to meet specific eligibility rules depending on age, school type, and distance from home.
| Pass type | How to apply | Key requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Child travel pass / bus pass for school travel | Complete the online form | Child must live in Birmingham and be between 5 and 16 years old, with distance and school-type rules applying |
| Low-income families travel pass | Complete the child's bus pass application form | For children getting free school meals or where parents get maximum working tax credit |
| Spare seat on school transport | Use the spare seat application | Only if your child does not receive free or discounted travel and meets the other criteria |
If you mean a standard adult bus pass, Birmingham’s records here only mention buying one from the NX Bus website or a local TWM shop, not a council application process.
