Downtown flat fare

The fixed fare applies only to the defined downtown Montréal zone.

The current published total is $49.45 during the day and $56.70 at night. Those totals include taxes and the Québec trip levy.

01Start time controls the price.

5:00 a.m.–10:59 p.m. uses the day fare; 11:00 p.m.–4:59 a.m. uses the night fare.

02Street-defined zone.

The centre-ville area is defined by published street boundaries, not by the entire city of Montréal.

03Boundary cases are held.

If an address is too close to a zone edge, TaxiRates asks for boundary review instead of guessing.

Other YUL destinations

Outside downtown, the Québec meter applies.

TaxiRates uses live road distance and traffic with the current day/night tariff, then applies the published YUL minimum if the result would otherwise be lower.

Day meter:

$4.10 pickup + $2.05/km or $0.77/min at low speed, plus the $1.05 Québec levy. Night pricing rises to $4.70 + $2.35/km or $0.89/min.
