The Victorian Government is increasing taxi fares:
The Essential Services Commission has released the commission assessment on maximum unbooked taxi fares for the Melbourne Metropolitan and Urban and Large Regional zones to apply from 23 September 2025.
We applied the fare adjustment mechanism from the 2024 unbooked taxi fare determination. Standard charges will increase by 2.8 per cent and high occupancy charges will increase by 2.6 per cent.
The commission assessment and updated fare schedules to apply from 23 September 2025 can be found here.
