What is Taxi Insurance?

Taxi insurance is a complete policy that protects drivers and business owners from the risks of operating as a taxi. Being a taxi driver can be risky business. Taxis transport a higher number of passengers than a standard car. They work unsociable hours. Do a very high mileage and work in rush hours, often in city centres. These factors can all contribute to more costly insurance cover than a standard car policy.

We can advise on the best level and type of cover. Being an expert broker, we can build a number of bespoke insurance policies, including:

  • Minibuses
  • Single Car Taxis
  • Hackney Cabs (Black Cabs)

Who Needs Taxi Insurance?

If you have three or more vehicles and operate a taxi business, then purchasing taxi insurance is the ideal situation for you. It doesn’t matter what type of vehicles you have; the cover will be solid. We provide insurance for:

Public Hire taxi Companies:  These are taxis that do not require pre-booking. You can hail them in the street, so they will require a different insurance coverage than private hire taxis. The most recognisable type of public hire taxi vehicle is the traditional black cab or hackney carriages. These usually have a ‘taxi’ sign on top of the vehicle.

Private Hire Taxi Companies: On the other side, you have Private hire taxi insurance. These vehicles have to be pre-booked by the customer. They do not display a ‘taxi’ sign (although vehicle advertising signage is common) and you cannot hail a private hire taxi on the street.

Taxi Company Insurance: We can also provide low-cost insurance that covers all of your fleet, cars, drivers, liabilities, taxi office, stock, and more when you build a bespoke taxi company insurance via our commercial combined policy.

Types of Taxi Insurance

Third-party only: This is the minimum level of insurance required by law. This will cover third-party liabilities in the event of an accident.

Third-party, fire & theft: This offers the same level of insurance Third Party Only, but also covered things like fire or the theft of your vehicle.

Comprehensive: This provides the same level of protection as Third Party Fire & Theft, but it will also cover you and your vehicle in the event of an accident, such as hospital fees or replacement of a vehicle.
