1. The Landkreis Augsburg Taxi Rate Explained Simply
Officially Set
The Landkreis Augsburg taxi rate was officially set on January 18, 2023. In Germany, cab fares are set officially by cities or districts and published in the official tariff ordinance. Unless otherwise regulated, it is binding for all cabs and cab companies within the compulsory travel area and may not be exceeded or undercut. This is ensured by officially calibrated taximeters installed in the cabs.
How the fare is made up under the Landkreis Augsburg taxi rate:
The taxi tariff for Landkreis Augsburg is structured to ensure clarity and fairness for all passengers. When you start your journey, a base fare of €3.90 is charged at the beginning of the ride. This base fare applies at all times, whether you are traveling during the day, at night, or on Sundays.
For rides taken between Monday and Saturday from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, the cost for each kilometer traveled after the initial base fare is €2.10 per kilometer. If your journey takes place at night, which is defined as Monday to Saturday from 10:00 pm until 6:00 am, or at any time on Sunday, the price per kilometer is €2.30 after the base fare.
In cases where the taxi is waiting, such as during traffic or at a stop, a waiting time charge applies. This is set at €30.00 for each hour the taxi spends waiting. The waiting time is calculated separately from the distance traveled and ensures that the driver is compensated fairly for their time.
These rules are part of the official taxi tariff in Landkreis Augsburg and are designed to provide transparency so that passengers can easily understand how their fare is calculated. By following this tariff, passengers can expect a clear and predictable rate for their taxi journeys within the region.

4. Legal Basis for Taxi Rides in Germany
Contrary to what many people assume, there is no single, nationwide taxi price in Germany. Taxi fares are set by the respective cities or districts – usually via an official taxi fare regulation.
This means:
- Each local authority can define its own prices
- Fares differ between cities, districts and federal states
- Taxi companies are required to apply these prices
Negotiating the price is not allowed, because these are officially approved mandatory fares.
In Germany, a taxi fare usually consists of several fixed components:
🚕 Base fare
The base fare is charged once at the start of the ride. It covers the provision of the vehicle and can vary significantly by city.
📏 Distance rate
The distance rate is charged during the trip. Many tariffs use tiers, for example:
- a rate for the first kilometres
- a different rate beyond a certain distance
⏱️ Waiting time
If the taxi is stuck in traffic or waits at the passenger’s request, waiting time is charged. This is usually billed per minute or per hour and can noticeably increase the total fare.
In many cities, different rates apply depending on the time of day. Possible examples include:
- night surcharges
- weekend or public holiday rates
- special late-evening rates
Whether and when such surcharges apply depends on the local regulation. You can find the details for this tariff at the top of this page.
Some cities offer special rules, such as:
- short-trip rates for very short rides
- minimum fares
- special prices for certain zones or times
These rules are not uniform nationwide. If special prices exist for this tariff, you’ll also find them at the top of this page.
Differences in taxi prices are driven by factors such as:
- local cost of living
- wages and operating costs
- traffic density and congestion
- municipal requirements
That’s why the same distance can cost several euros more in one city than in another.
Because of these differences, comparing taxi fares in Germany makes sense. On this website you’ll find:
- up-to-date fares from across Germany
- city-to-city comparisons
- practical ride examples
- statistics and rankings
This helps you estimate realistic costs before you ride.
In Germany, taxi fares are not updated on a fixed schedule, but when needed. Changes typically happen when economic or legal conditions shift significantly—for example due to rising operating costs, wage increases or regulatory changes.
Taxi rides in Germany are subject to fare binding. This means the officially set taxi tariff must be applied. Drivers are legally required to use the approved tariff.
No deviations within the mandatory service area
Within the mandatory service area, fares may neither be exceeded nor undercut. Individual price agreements, discounts or flat special prices are not permitted. This prohibition also applies to the taxi tariff shown here. The fare is calculated exclusively via the taximeter based on the official tariff.
Price agreements possible for destinations outside the mandatory area
For rides whose destination lies outside the mandatory service area, price agreements are generally possible. In this case, a fixed price or different fare can be agreed with the driver or taxi company before the ride starts. The agreement must be clear and made in advance—later changes are not permitted. Without an explicit agreement, the regular tariff still applies and the ride is billed via the taximeter.
