Child tickets are available at ticket machines for all intercity journeys.
Child tickets are no longer available for Dublin commuter journeys at ticket machines due to wide scale abuse by adults purchasing child tickets.
Child smart cards are available which offer discounted fares during school hours and full child fare otherwise and in July/August. These are linked to a photo and data of birth to avoid any issues with staff challenging for proof of age
Where the ticket you need is not available from a ticket machine you may travel without a ticket, provided you purchase the ticket at the earliest opportunity.
There is an age limit buried in the T&C's somewhere
