Paris RER tickets - do they have to be purchased day of travel?
I plan to purchase a roundtrip RER ticket from central Paris to Versailles in July. Do I have to purchase it the day of travel or can I purchase it a few days prior?
Thank you
Thank you

Once you purchase a <i>billet Origine-Destination</i> or point to point tickets used for RER travel, they are valid forever; they never expire.
The same timeless concept applies to the ticket t+ for travel within zone 1 on the RER.

You cannot but a single ticket to a zone. The exception is a ticket t+ which is valid only for the RER travel in zone 1.
Beyond zone 1, RER tickets are sold point to point only. If you are going to a point which happens to be within the zone 4 limit, the ticket you purchase will station specific. These tickets are called <i>billet Origine-Destination</i> and may be used going either direction between the two named stations.
