Taxis


Several taxicab companies service the Las Vegas Valley. Fares begin at $3.20, and are $1.80 for every mile thereafter (20 cents for each 1/9 mile). There is a $1.20 airport surcharge per trip. If the taximeter senses that the taxicab is moving less than 8-12 MPH, the taximeter will assess a charge of $.20 every 33 seconds ($22.00 per hour waiting time)

In accordance with NRS 706.8845(10), up to five passengers can ride in a taxicab for the one price listed on the taximeter (passengers cannot be charged individually). Five passengers are permitted, as long as the driver does "not carry more than two passengers in the front seat of the taxicab or carry more passengers in the back seat of the taxicab than are authorized by the manufacturer's recommendations."

NOTE: TAXI CABS IN SOUTHERN NEVADA DO NOT ACCEPT CREDIT/DEBIT CARDS AS PAYMENT

Rates are set by the Taxicab Authority. If you have any questions, comments or complaints, please contact the Authority at 702-486-6532 or online at taxi.state.nv.us.
