The law that allows taxis to operate through electronic TVDE platforms entered into force on September 1st, but its practical application has not yet been possible. The necessary regulation for taxi drivers to join these platforms remains undefined, which means that, for now, passengers cannot book taxis through applications like those used for private transport services.
Taxi drivers have expressed interest in joining these platforms, hoping to compete more equally with traditional TVDE companies. However, the absence of specific rules prevents the process from moving forward, leaving sector professionals in a situation of uncertainty.
Passengers will be able to refuse the option of being transported by taxis when using these platforms, maintaining freedom of choice. This possibility was included in the legislation to ensure that users are not forced to accept taxi rides if they so wish.
