Abu Dhabi Taxi Contact Numbers
Abu Dhabi Taxi is operated by Abu Dhabi Mobility, the Integrated Transport Centre (ITC), which sits under the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT). The service operates across Abu Dhabi emirate and can travel to Dubai and other emirates. The main booking number most people search for is the Abu Dhabi taxi number 600 - which is 600 535 353.
How to Book an Abu Dhabi Taxi by Phone
Booking an Abu Dhabi taxi by phone is quick. Follow these steps:
- Call the Abu Dhabi Taxi booking number 600 535 353. From outside the UAE, dial +971 2 418 6000.
- Give your pickup location - a full address, hotel name, or a clear landmark works best.
- Tell the operator your destination and how many passengers are travelling, so the right vehicle is sent.
- Confirm the time you need the taxi. You can book for now or schedule ahead.
- Note the vehicle details if given, then wait at your pickup point. Abu Dhabi taxis are metered, so the fare is set by the meter.
Prefer not to call? The official Abu Dhabi Taxi app lets you book without speaking to an operator - see below.
Abu Dhabi Taxi App
Instead of calling, you can book through the official Abu Dhabi Taxi app from Abu Dhabi Mobility. It is available on the Apple App Store, Google Play, and Huawei AppGallery - search for "Abu Dhabi Taxi". The app lets you request a taxi, set your pickup point on the map, and pay in the app on the supported fleet. It is a good alternative to the 600 535 353 line if you would rather not phone.
Abu Dhabi Airport (AUH) Taxi Rank
You do not need a phone number for a taxi at Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH). There is an official metered taxi rank right outside the arrivals hall. Airport staff manage the queue, so you simply join the line and take the next available taxi. Fares run on the meter, usually with a set airport starting fare on top.
If you would rather skip the queue after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the alternative. Gulf Chauffeur meets you inside arrivals with a name board and drives you on a fixed price to any address in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, including DXB. This is handy for late arrivals, families with luggage, or business travellers who want a driver waiting. See our Abu Dhabi airport transfers page for details.
About Abu Dhabi Taxi
Abu Dhabi taxis are silver and white in colour, making them distinctive from Dubai's cream and red vehicles and Sharjah's cream and orange cabs. The fleet is metered and regulated. Drivers are licensed and the service is considered reliable for city travel within Abu Dhabi.
For intercity trips - particularly to Dubai - drivers will typically negotiate a rate rather than run the meter, as the meter fare would be very high for a 140 km journey. Always agree on a price before departing for long-distance trips.
Dubai to Abu Dhabi Private Alternative
For intercity transfers between Dubai and Abu Dhabi, a pre-booked private chauffeur offers significant advantages over hailing a taxi. You agree the price before travel, your driver arrives at your address, and there are no surprises in traffic.
Gulf Chauffeur covers Dubai to Abu Dhabi day trips from AED 1,000. This includes pickup anywhere in Dubai, the drive to Abu Dhabi, your driver waiting throughout the day, and the return to Dubai. We also handle one-way transfers - useful for Abu Dhabi residents heading to DXB airport, or for business travellers with flexible return plans.
