1. The Phoenix Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Phoenix taxi rate was officially set on 1 janvier 2024. Taxi tariffs in the United States of America are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Phoenix 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 Phoenix taxi rate:

The Phoenix taxi tariff outlines how fares are calculated when you take a taxi within the city. Each ride starts with a base fare of $2.75. This is the initial amount charged as soon as you enter the taxi, regardless of how far you travel.

After the base fare, your total fare increases based on the distance you travel. For every kilometer traveled, there is a charge of $1.38. This means that after the initial base fare, an additional $1.38 is added for each kilometer driven by the taxi.

If the taxi must wait for any reason, such as waiting at a stop or in heavy traffic, there is a waiting time charge. The Phoenix taxi tariff sets the waiting time rate at $36.00 per hour. This amount is calculated on a time basis and only applies when the taxi is not moving.

Passengers can expect their final fare to be a combination of the base fare, the total distance traveled, and any waiting time that may occur. The Phoenix taxi tariff uses these clear charges to help travelers understand how much they will pay for a typical taxi ride within the city.
