National Taxi Congress: Where Operators and Policy Meet

The National Taxi Congress brings together the entire sector: operators, policymakers, municipality representatives and industry associations. It is the platform for strategic discussions about the future of taxi transport in the Netherlands.

What is the National Taxi Congress?

The National Taxi Congress is the annual meeting point for the upper segment of the taxi sector: operators with multiple vehicles, fleet managers, directors of care transport companies and representatives from municipalities and ministries.

Unlike the Taxi Expo — which has a trade fair character — the congress is primarily about strategy, policy and the future of the sector.

Main Topics at the National Taxi Congress

1. Tenders and Procurement

Tenders for care and school transport are increasingly important for taxi operators. The congress analyses recent tender outcomes, discusses award criteria and gives practical tips for stronger bids.

2. Zero-Emission Policy

How do municipalities deal with the transition to zero-emission taxi fleets? What support exists for operators struggling with the investments required? Representatives from various cities present their roadmaps.

3. Labour Market and Personnel Policy

How do you attract, train and retain drivers in a tight labour market? Best practices from leading operators are shared.

4. Legislation and Enforcement

ILT inspectors and legal experts explain how enforcement will develop in 2026 and beyond. What new rules are upcoming and how do you prepare your business?
