How to spot an official taxi in Paris

Beware of unlicensed drivers at airport arrival halls and major train stations — they may approach you with "taxi?" while you're walking out. Always use an official taxi rank or pre-book through AlloTaxi.

1. Illuminated roof sign

White light = available, red light = busy. Unofficial cars have no roof light.

2. ADS plate on dashboard

Every Paris taxi has a numbered ADS prefecture plate (visible from outside). No plate = no licensed taxi.

3. Working meter

The official meter must be visible and running (or flat airport rate applied). Refuse any "fixed price" outside the regulated tariff.

An official Paris taxi has: an illuminated TAXI roof sign, an ADS prefecture plate visible from outside, a working meter (or applied flat airport rate), and the driver's professional card displayed. AlloTaxi only works with officially licensed drivers (prefecture de police de Paris).
How can I get a taxi from the street in Paris?
Look for the 460+ official taxi stands (gares, hotels, Concorde, Bastille, République, Champs-Élysées). Hail a passing taxi with green roof light on. For night, peak hours or guaranteed availability, pre-book via AlloTaxi.
Are Paris taxis available 24/7?
Yes. AlloTaxi operates 24/7, 365 days a year. Airport pickups at 4 AM, late-night returns from clubs, urgent trips: all covered. Night tariff (Tariff C) applies at higher per-km rate, but airport flat rates stay identical 24/7.
Can I book a Paris taxi in advance?
Yes — book days or weeks ahead. Highly recommended for: early CDG / Orly flights, group rides, business meetings. Regulated €7 advance booking fee. SMS or email confirmation.
Do Paris taxi drivers speak English?
Many do — central Paris drivers usually speak basic English. For a guaranteed English-speaking driver, mention it when booking AlloTaxi. The dispatcher line is fully English-speaking 24/7.

Paris taxi: ADS license, can be hailed in the street, uses bus lanes (faster in traffic), regulated meter, fixed airport rate. Uber/VTC: reservation-only via app, no bus lane access, dynamic surge pricing (can be 2-3× during peak). For predictable price and traffic-resilient service, taxi wins.
