Driving passengers as a taxi in Poland involves requirements for the transport operator, the driver and the vehicle. A fleet partner may already hold the operator's taxi licence; a driver joining that fleet does not necessarily apply for a separate licence in their own name. Check the arrangement before submitting documents.

First decide how you will operate

Ask whether you will work under a licensed fleet partner or as your own licensed business. The licence and vehicle extract belong to the operator's arrangement. Uber's Poland licensing guide lists onboarding documents and explains the taxi path.

Driver and vehicle checks

Uber lists a Polish category B licence held for at least one year, identity documents, required background and health checks, plus vehicle and taxi documents. The exact set depends on your circumstances and the current requirements. Foreign applicants should check the documents accepted for their right to work and their driving licence before paying for tests or a car.

Where to confirm the official procedure

If you need your own licence, consult the competent municipal or county office for the area where you intend to provide taxi transport. Ask for the current application form, attachments, fees and processing information. These details depend on the authority and the licence scope. Check the Ministry of Infrastructure information on taxi licences as a starting point.

Vehicle extract

The vehicle must be covered by the correct documentation for the operator. See our vehicle extract guide and verify the details for the specific car with the office or partner.

Plan the next step

Tell us whether you already have a car and whether you plan to use a fleet partner. Leave your contact details to discuss the document route. No fixed activation date or fee is promised here.
