1. The Aarhus Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Aarhus taxi rate was officially set on January 1, 2024. Taxi prices may be negotiated freely in Denmark. We recommend that you negotiate a fixed price on the basis of our calculation before you start your journey. In this case, the agreed fare should be entered in the taximeter before departure. The taximeter must remain switched on during the journey. Taxi companies must disclose their respective standard fare in the taxi.

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

The taxi tariff in Aarhus is determined by the time and day of your journey. From Monday to Friday between 6:00 am and 6:00 pm, the day tariff applies. During these hours, there is a base fare of 39.00 DKK when you start your trip. For every kilometer you travel, you are charged 11.40 DKK. If the taxi needs to wait during your ride, the waiting time is charged at 414.00 DKK per hour.

The night tariff in Aarhus is in effect from Monday to Friday between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am, as well as throughout the entire day on Saturday and Sunday. Under this tariff, the base fare is 49.00 DKK at the start of your journey. Each kilometer costs 12.20 DKK. If your taxi must wait, the waiting rate is 468.00 DKK per hour during night tariff hours.

To calculate your taxi fare in Aarhus, start with the base fare for the applicable time period. Add the cost for each kilometer you travel based on whether it is day or night. If there are any periods when the taxi is waiting, this is added as an extra charge depending on the duration. This ensures that passengers clearly understand how their fare is determined for any trip.

These clear and specific rates help you know what to expect when taking a taxi in Aarhus, whether you are traveling during the day, at night, or on weekends.

We regularly review all taxi rates in our database by researching official publications (official gazettes or municipal regulations) as well as various online sources.

For most rates, we are also informed in advance by the rate-setting authority (city, district, municipality) or by taxi companies or taxi cooperatives, allowing us to include updates at an early stage.

Nevertheless, it can sometimes happen that we miss an update. If that is the case here and you know of a rate update, you can send us a short message via our contact form. We will take care of it as quickly as possible!
