Instructions for taxi passengers
Before getting in
Be sure you understand the approximate cost of the trip. Prices are not uniform; taxi operators can set their own rates.
Take a close look at the yellow price list, which is posted on the right side rear door.
Here you’ll find rates for:
* the base fare (usually 35–70 Estonian kroons);
* the waiting charge, used only when the taxi is actually standing (usually 100–300 Estonian kroons/hr).
* the per-kilometre charges: a daytime charge used from 6am to 11pm, and a nighttime charge used from 11pm to 6am (both usually 8–15 Estonian kroons/km);
Anything much more than these is considered high. Make sure the taxi driver holds an operator’s card – a white plastic card with the driver’s photo and name, attached to the middle of the dashboard.
Starting out
Make sure the taxi’s meter is turned on. It is illegal for the driver to smoke or to allow others to smoke in the taxi.
At the end of the ride
The driver is not allowed to ask for more than what is on the meter. The driver must be paid in Estonian kroons. Ask the taxi driver for a receipt from the meter’s printer. If the meter or printer is out of order, the driver should not be in service and you have the right to refuse to pay the fare.
