What is the best taxi app in Stockholm?

Which apps are in use and what to compare when you choose.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Visit Stockholm names Taxi 020, Taxi Stockholm, Taxi Kurir, Uber and Bolt as commonly used taxi services in Stockholm and says the list is not an endorsement. To choose, compare the price shown before the trip, any fixed price and the comparison price on the car.

Why

  1. Visit Stockholm says its list of taxi services is not an endorsement of individual companies but an example of commonly used services.
  2. The Swedish Transport Agency advises you to check that the taxi has yellow number plates and a taximeter, and says every taxi must show price information outside and inside the car.
  3. Visit Stockholm advises booking through an app, so that you see the final price before you start your journey.

Details

Taxi Stockholm lets you choose between a fixed price and the meter in its app, Taxi Kurir says you always get a fixed price when you book in its app, and Uber shows a price estimate once you enter a destination. For a trip with a comparison price above SEK 700 the driver must give a binding price. See taxi services in Stockholm and whether Stockholm is expensive.

Tip

Check the price for the same trip in two or three apps before you book, and ask for a taximeter receipt afterwards.

What may differ

What to compare depends on the trip: a group of 5–7 people needs a large car, such as Taxi Stockholm's Tariffs 5 and 6, and Visit Stockholm says wheelchair-accessible cars are available at some companies but in limited numbers, so book early.

Common misconception

All taxi apps in Sweden charge the same regulated fare.

What actually happens

The Swedish Transport Agency says free pricing applies with no maximum price, and Visit Stockholm notes that prices can differ between taxi companies.

  • Is Uber or Bolt cheaper in Stockholm?

    Neither Uber nor Bolt publishes a fixed Stockholm fare, so which is cheaper depends on the trip and the moment, and the app estimates are the way to compare.
