Franchise taxi operator providing metered taxi services in Dubai

About City Taxi

City Taxi is one of the franchise taxi operators serving Dubai. Its cars are part of the city's regulated taxi network, which is overseen by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

Dubai opened its taxi market to private franchise companies to expand the fleet as the city's population and tourism grew. Today, several companies operate thousands of taxis between them.

Operators handle the practical side of running a taxi fleet: buying and maintaining vehicles, recruiting and training drivers, managing shifts and keeping cars clean and safe.

Driver welfare and training are important parts of the operation. Drivers work long shifts in a demanding environment, and companies provide accommodation, training and support.

Passengers in Dubai can hail taxis on the street, find them at ranks at malls, hotels and the airport, or book them through apps. Airport taxis charge a fixed starting fare that is higher than street pick-ups.

The RTA has introduced smart systems in taxis, including card payment, tracking and digital meters, and continues to modernise the fleet with greener vehicles.
