Transport licence holders and those notified as service providers are charged an annual fee. If an operator no longer provides transport services, it is advisable to cancel the transport licence or notification. The annual fee is charged to all licence holders and service providers entered in the Transport Register on 1 January 2026.
The fees charged for transport licences were confirmed on 22 December 2025. The annual fee for licence holders is 115 euros, and the annual fee for service providers is 40 euros.
Annual fee for licence holders and service providers
All holders of a taxi, passenger or goods transport licence whose licence is valid on 1 January 2026 must pay an annual fee.
The annual fee also applies to service providers (goods transport, brokering and dispatch services, and integrated mobility services) with a valid notification entry in the register on 1 January 2026.
The annual fee is company-specific, and the number of valid transport licences held by a company does not affect the amount of the fee.
If a company holds several valid taxi, passenger and goods transport licences, the fee is charged only once.
A service provider’s annual fee is not charged if the company holds a valid transport licence.
Changes to licences included in the annual fee
Changes made to a transport licence during its validity are covered by the annual fee and no separate charge is levied for them. The same applies to changes made to notifications. An example of such a free-of-charge change is a change of the transport manager.
The annual fees are also used to cover the costs of the supervision of licence holders and other administrative tasks associated with the Transport Register data on transport licences and transport operators.
Unnecessary transport licences or service provider notifications should be cancelled by 31 December 2025
If a company no longer operates services and wants to avoid paying the annual fee, it should request the cancellation of its licence or notification.
No annual fee is charged if the request to cancel a licence or notification arrives at the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency (Traficom) at the latest on 31 December 2025 and if the operations subject to the licence or notification are reported to end by the end of 2025.
If a licence or notification is valid on 1 January 2026 when the fees are determined, the fee will be charged even if no services are operated under the licence or notification.
The annual fee will not be refunded or reimbursed if a company ends its operations or requests the cancellation of its licence or notification at a later point after the fee has been determined.
Cancellation requests can be submitted conveniently via Traficom’s My e-Services. No fee is charged for decisions concerning the cancellation of a licence and the removal of a register entry.
