France sets new rates for Paris, Nice and Toulouse airport taxis
Briefly

The French government has introduced new fixed maximum taxi fares for licensed taxis, effective February 1, 2025, as part of its efforts to curb the illegal practice of unlicensed drivers overcharging tourists in cities like Paris and Nice. The revisions include specific rates for journeys to and from major airports and updates for non-airport trips. These changes aim to ensure fair pricing and improve safety for visitors using taxi services in France, as unregulated options often charge excessive amounts, negatively impacting tourist experiences.
In an effort to protect both tourists and residents, the French government has revised taxi fare regulations, establishing fixed maximum rates for licensed taxis.
New taxi rates in France include 56 for trips from Charles de Gaulle airport to Paris right bank, with further adjustments for each zone.
Tourists are urged to use licensed taxis to avoid inflated fares charged by unlicensed drivers, with rates from 8 minimum for any trip.
The decree emphasizes safety and transparency in taxi fares, moving towards a standardized approach to pricing across the major airports.
