The word تذكرة (tadhkara) comes from the root ذ-ك-ر (dh-k-r), meaning to remember or to note. It historically developed to denote a form of identification or acknowledgment.
تذكرة is used in formal contexts related to travel, especially in relation to tickets for transportation. It's also used in both written and spoken Arabic.
