1. The Ankara Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Ankara taxi rate was officially set on 1 janvier 2024. Taxi tariffs in Turkey are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Ankara 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 Ankara taxi rate:

The taxi tariff in Ankara is designed to make it easy for passengers to understand how their fare is calculated. Each ride starts with a base fare of 4.60 TRY. This initial amount is added to your fare as soon as you enter the taxi, regardless of the distance or duration of your trip.

As your journey continues, a distance-based charge is applied. For every kilometre travelled, 3.40 TRY is added to your fare. This rate is consistent for all distances covered during the ride.

If the taxi is stopped or moving very slowly, a waiting charge will be added. The waiting time is calculated at 40.00 TRY for each hour spent waiting. This ensures that the fare reflects time spent in traffic or when the taxi is stationary.

To sum up, your taxi fare in Ankara is based on the combination of the base fare, the distance you travel at 3.40 TRY per kilometre, and any waiting time that occurs during your journey. This transparent pricing helps passengers understand exactly how their fare is determined before and during each ride.
