Prices

The prices are uniformly set by the city of Leipzig for all taxis and cannot be negotiated. All taxis are fitted with a meter. The meter is turned on when you enter the taxi and always shows the current cost of your journey. You can request a receipt at the end of your journey.

Taxis can be orders in various ways:

  • Getting in at the taxi rank
  • Stopping at the roadside (if the yellow taxi sign on the car is turned on)
  • Calling the taxi office
  • Using the app of the taxi offices

The price is made up of a standing charge, an amount per kilometer driven and a surcharge due to the high cost of petrol. Higher prices apply at night and on weekends/holidays. You can find the current prices on the websites of the taxi offices and in the taxi.
