Fare shown before you book

Your driver is on the way

Illustrated map of Erbil’s ring roads, with a taxi route from Erbil Citadel to Erbil International Airport.

From tap to door in four steps.

No waving on the kerb, no haggling through the window. Here’s what a KurdTaxi ride looks like.

  1. Set your pickup and destination

    Drop a pin or pick a saved place like Home or Work. Need to stop on the way? Add a stop.

  2. See the fare first

    You get an estimated fare before you confirm — worked out from the road distance and the time of day.

  3. The nearest driver gets the call

    Your request goes to the closest available driver in your city first, then the next, until someone accepts.

  4. Track, chat and arrive

    Watch your car approach on the map, message or call your driver, and rate the trip when you get there.

Pay the way you already do.

Cash is always fine — hand over more than the fare and the change can go straight into your KurdTaxi wallet. Prefer digital? Pay with the apps you use every day.
