Taxi Fare Tariffs Explained


 AS FROM 2022.


​Please Note -  PUBLIC RANK TAXI FARES ARE CONTROLLED BY THE DVS AND THE METERS ARE SEALED TO MAKE THEM TAMPER PROOF.

Altogether there are three numbered tariffs used for public rank hire or when the taxi is hailed down off the street. (Tariffs 1, 2 & 3 apply). 
Private hire bookings that provide a door to door service also have 3 tariffs but they are lettered A, B & C.  Pre-booked journeys are usually
charged at a higher rate to cover dead mileage and waiting time before getting to the pickup point. 
These tariffs are automatically set by the Taximeter and not the driver. 

                                                                                                                           

 THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO SETS OF TARIFFS.

Private hire fares can be as much as 50% more depending on the individual private hire company and this extra charge goes towards running depot costs and providing the door to door service,
as drivers often cover dead mileage and waiting time before they can start their meters.  
PLEASE NOTE -
JERSEY TAXIAPP Fares are set at the lowest private hire rate over any other private hire companies at 17% above public rank fares and we are currently the only operator that 
gives you a fare estimation via an App booking.


Tariff 1 or A.   These are the lowest fares and run they run during the day time and early evenings between the hours of 7am until 11pm Monday to Saturday (16 hours per day).
​
Tariff 2 or B.   Are 30% higher and they run between the hours of 11pm until 7am Monday to Saturday and all day Sunday and bank holidays. 
​
Tariff 3 or C.   Are nearly double compared to tariff 1 or A and run only on Christmas eve after 7pm through Christmas day and boxing day and again New Years eve from 7pm and New Years day until the 2nd of January. 

TARIFF CARDS

All registered and licenced Taxicabs by law have to display Tariff Cards in their vehicles showing the private hire charges that are set by the company they are affiliated to,
​so the customer can see what tariff they are on.
These tariffs are applied automatically on all  taxicabs and cannot be set by the driver as their meters are sealed by the States of Jersey (DVS) Department.

Any complaint regarding a licensed Taxicab driver or the vehicle should be first made to the taxi company that the driver is affiliated to and then if you want to take your complain further the -
