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.
Here are the prices (as of July 2022):
| Category | Monday–Sunday 05:00–20:00 Uhr | Other times |
| Standing charge | € 3,90 | € 3,90 |
| Kilometres 1-2 | € 2,70 | € 2,90 |
| Kilometres 3-10 | € 2,00 | € 2,20 |
