1. The Perpignan Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Perpignan taxi rate was officially set on February 6, 2024. Taxi tariffs in France are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Perpignan was last set in February 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 Perpignan taxi rate:

The Perpignan taxi tariff clearly outlines how fares are calculated for different times of day. From Monday to Saturday, between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm, the base fare for a taxi ride is €8.00. This base fare includes the first 2.16 kilometers of your journey. After you travel beyond this distance, each additional kilometer costs €2.36. If the taxi must wait during your ride, such as in traffic or at your request, the waiting time is charged at €22.99 per hour.

During the evening and night, from 7:00 pm to 7:00 am, and all day on Sunday, the tariff changes slightly. The base fare remains €8.00, but it includes only the first 1.44 kilometers. For every kilometer beyond this, the price is €3.54. The waiting time during these hours is calculated at €25.00 per hour.

To understand your fare with the Perpignan taxi tariff, first consider the base fare, which covers a specific initial distance based on the time and day. Once that distance is exceeded, the price per kilometer applies. If the taxi is stationary for any period, the waiting time is factored in according to the hourly rate.

This transparent structure makes it easier for passengers to estimate the cost of their taxi ride in Perpignan. It ensures that you know how both distance and waiting times contribute to the final fare, depending on your travel time and day.
