Taxi Business

Post by Nilakash » Mon Jun 17, 2019 12:42 am

Hi,
Is there anyone in the forum who has already started taxi business. Actually I just got my taxi driving license and applied for taxi license. I would like to be a private trader and want to drive my own taxi. Now I have some questions about the taxi business in Finland.

Firstly what types of car is good for taxi driving in Finland? I mean hybrid or diesel car??
Secondly is there any financial benefit I can get from Vero for buying a new car for taxi driving only? Can I start driving without opening a business bank account ?

Everybody are welcome to ask and answer to this thread regarding Taxi business. Your participation will be a great help for the others who are willing to open up a taxi business. Thanks in advance. :D :D :D

You should start a new account to make accounting easier but it private traders don't need to open a business account (they can use personal accounts). You could also consider Holvi:

Well, I am going to take the test for taxi driving next week and do not have much information about it. Can anyone help, who have taken the test recently, how the current test looks like and is there a website where I can find some sample test questions?
Your help is much appreciated!
