About Arabia Taxi
Arabia Taxi is one of the private taxi companies that operate in Dubai under licence from the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
Dubai's taxi system combines a government-owned operator, Dubai Taxi, with several private franchise companies. All taxis follow RTA rules on fares, vehicle standards and driver training, so passengers pay the same metered fares whichever company operates the car.
Taxi operators are responsible for their fleet, drivers, maintenance and daily operations, while bookings flow through street hails, taxi ranks and digital channels.
Passengers can book taxis through the RTA's apps and through ride-hailing platforms, which now dispatch licensed taxis alongside private-hire cars. This integration has made it easier to book a taxi in advance and pay by card.
Dubai has been converting its taxi fleet to hybrid and electric vehicles to reduce emissions, and operators have been required to modernise their cars as part of this plan.
Taxi drivers in Dubai must pass training and tests covering routes, customer service and safety, and they are licensed individually by the RTA.
