A taxi entry in a vehicle's registration document and an extract from a taxi licence are different documents. Uber's requirements in Poland list both vehicle documents. Check the current process before buying or renting a car.
What is the TAXI entry?
The TAXI entry is an annotation in the vehicle registration document after the required vehicle checks. Ask the registration office and an authorised inspection station which documents and inspection are needed for your car. The process may depend on the vehicle's current registration and condition.
What is a vehicle licence extract?
The extract links a specific vehicle to the taxi licence used for the service. If you work through a fleet partner, ask which licence applies, who requests the extract and what you must provide. Uber asks for the vehicle registration document with the TAXI entry and the licence extract when adding a car to its system.
How much time and money should you allow?
Fees, inspection needs and processing times depend on the vehicle, local office and completeness of documents. Request the current official fee schedule and a written breakdown of the partner's charges. Do not plan a first trip around an assumed fixed turnaround time. The registration guide shows where these documents fit in the process.
What about insurance or another platform?
Do not rely on a general claim that ordinary third-party liability insurance covers paid passenger transport. Tell the insurer how the vehicle will be used and ask for written confirmation of coverage. If you plan to use Bolt or FreeNow as well, check each platform's current documents and the partner's terms separately. Our platform comparison lists questions to ask.
Changing the vehicle
Before changing or selling a car, ask the licence holder and local office how its documents must be updated. Check the new car's eligibility with Uber and obtain the required registration and licence documents before adding it to your account. The time needed can vary.
Need help with the documents?
Leave a contact number and ask which steps Departner can handle in your city. Confirm fees, office visits and the required documents before proceeding.
