Poznan taxi price
Poznan taxi rates aren’t fixed. Instead, they are calculated using taximeters based on government tariffs. This means that local taxi services cannot exceed the tariff, but may set their prices as they wish within this boundary, leading to price variations between providers.
Thankfully, all taxis are required to display their fares on a window sticker so you know exactly what you are being charged.
The average Poznan taxi price is:
- Base fee: €1.38 (PLN 6)
- Price per km: €0.57 (PLN 2.50)
It’s worth noting that taxi journeys beyond the city limits will cost more and extra luggage may incur additional charges. Please note these prices are subject to change and rates rise on Sundays, public holidays, and at nighttime.
If you would prefer to have a set price in advance, we recommend booking a private pickup. This way, you’ll have no hidden costs and can save precious time and money.

How to get a taxi in Poznan
Though a relatively small city, Poznan is very well-connected and has a few dozen radio taxi companies. Each taxi company will look slightly different but official taxis will have the name and number of the company clearly marked, a taxi light, and a tariff sticker displayed in the window.
You may come across non-official taxis that are not bound by government regulations or tariffs. We strongly recommend only using official radio taxis in Poznan. They are safer – and usually cheaper.
On the street, you can hail a Poznan taxi by raising your hand or you can walk to the nearest designated taxi rank. Taxi ranks are generally found outside major transportation hubs such as the airport and Poznan’s main railway station, as well as popular tourist attractions, shopping malls, and hotels.
How to get a taxi from Poznan Airport
When you arrive in Poznan, you should head outside of the terminal, where you will find the airport’s taxi rank. This rank is in operation 24/7, and you will usually find a line of Poznan Airport taxis ready to accept passengers.
How to get a taxi from Malta Ski
Public transportation cannot get close to the lake and its surrounding slopes, so you will have to head some kilometers out to find a bus. Getting a taxi from a reliable provider like Uber or Welcome Pickups would be a better option.
How to get a taxi from Poznan Central Railway Station
You can head to one of the three taxi ranks: one next to the Main Hall (under the Railway Bridge), another at the Western exit, and the last on Wolne Tory Street near the main entrance to the city center.

Most popular taxi apps in Poznan
During holidays and peak seasons, finding a taxi on the street can often be tricky, especially late at night, during wet weather, or if you have more than three passengers. To have a taxi come directly to you, you can use Poznan taxi apps like iTaxi or Uber.
