1. The Antananarivo Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Antananarivo taxi rate was officially set on 1 janvier 2024. Taxi tariffs in Madagascar are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Antananarivo was last set in janvier 2024 and published in the official tariff ordinance. It is binding for all taxis and taxi companies within the compulsory driving area and may not be exceeded or undercut. This is ensured by officially calibrated taximeters installed in the taxis.

How the fare is made up under the Antananarivo taxi rate:

The taxi tariff in Antananarivo is designed to be straightforward for passengers. When you begin a taxi ride, there is an initial charge, known as the base fare. In Antananarivo, the base fare is 10000.00 MGA. This amount is applied as soon as you start your journey, regardless of the distance you plan to travel.

After the base fare, the cost of your journey depends on the distance you travel. For each kilometer traveled beyond the starting point, the tariff is 8000.00 MGA per kilometer. This charge is applied to all further distances, making it easy to calculate the cost for longer trips by multiplying the distance by the per-kilometer rate.

If your trip involves waiting time, such as stopping in traffic or waiting for a period of time, the tariff includes a charge for waiting. The waiting time is calculated at 20000.00 MGA per hour. This means that if the taxi is not moving, this hourly rate is added to your total fare for the ride.

All components of the fare—the base fare, the price per kilometer, and the waiting time—are combined to determine the total fare you pay at the end of your taxi ride. The Antananarivo taxi tariff ensures that pricing is clear and transparent, so passengers know exactly how their fare is calculated.
