Fair Taxi – driver registration
Register as a driver with Fair Taxi.
The complete process, step by step. First you join Taxiunionen. Then you check that the operator you will drive for is registered with Fair Taxi. After that you prepare your documents, register with Fair and send in your criminal record extract.
Important before you register
The operator must already be registered with Fair Taxi before you as a driver can register and be linked to it. You then register yourself — your personal details, your driver documentation, the operator/company details, the registration number of the car you will drive and any other information required by Fair's form. The operator does not submit your registration.
The operator is already registered
Then continue with the steps below. Find out the operator's name and the registration number of the car you will drive — both are asked for in the driver registration.
The operator is not registered
Then the operator must complete Fair Taxi's operator registration first. Contact your operator and send them the operator instructions.
You own the operator business yourself
Then register the company with Fair Taxi first. Once that is done, register as a driver and you are connected to your own company.
Three things that are not the same
Membership in Taxiunionen
Membership of the association, handled in the member system (MemberSpace). This is step 01.
Fair Taxi operator registration
The company's registration with Fair Taxi. It must be done before you can be approved as a driver.
Fair Taxi driver registration
Your own registration as a driver, through Fair's driver form. This page describes that process.
The complete process
- 01
Join Taxiunionen
Membership in Taxiunionen is the first step and is separate from registration with Fair Taxi. Membership is handled in the association's member system — not in Fair's form.
- 1.Choose a membership in the member system. Both free and paid membership exist.
- 2.Already a member? Log in instead.
Membership fees and the service fee for each membership level are stated in the member system. Check the current levels there.
- 02
Check that the operator is registered with Fair Taxi
You can only be approved as a driver if the operator you will drive for is already registered with Fair Taxi.
- 1.Driving for someone else's company: ask the owner whether the operator has started or completed its Fair registration.
- 2.Own the company yourself: complete the operator registration first.
- 3.Find out the operator's name and the registration number of the car you will drive.
If the operator is not registered, your driver registration cannot be approved. Send the operator instructions to the owner.
- 03
Prepare your documents and details
The driver registration requires photos of your documents plus details about the operator and the car. Have everything ready before you start.
- 1.Taxi driver licence: take a photo of the licence.
- 2.Driving licence: photograph both the front and the back.
- 3.A recent photo of yourself — a selfie with a neutral background, without sunglasses.
- 4.The registration number of the car you will drive.
- 5.The name of the operator you will drive for.
- 04
Register as a driver with Fair Taxi
Complete Fair Taxi's driver form and upload your documents. Here you also select the operator and the car you will drive — which is why the operator must be registered and the cars entered.
By applying you also accept Reko Rides AB's transport agreement. Read it before you submit.
- 05
Order the criminal record extract from the police
Order the extract “Arbete med barn i annan verksamhet än skola och barnomsorg” from the Swedish Police. It is delivered digitally to Kivra.

- 06
Send the extract to support@fairtaxi.se
Download the document from Kivra and email it to support@fairtaxi.se from the same email address you used when registering with Fair Taxi.

- 07
Fair Taxi reviews and connects you to the operator
Fair reviews your details and documents, checks identity and qualifications and contacts you if anything needs completing. Once approved you are connected to the operator and the car, and receive further start-up information by email.

Common questions
Why do I need to be a member of Taxiunionen?
Fair Taxi was started together with the association Taxiunionen, which works for better conditions for drivers and operators. As a member you benefit from the association's agreements and offers, and you have a vote in the association.
What if my operator is not registered?
Then you cannot register on the operator. The operator must complete Fair Taxi's operator registration first. Send them the instructions — you then complete your own driver registration.
Why does Fair ask for a record extract?
Taxi is a profession built on trust. The extract is part of Fair's safety work, together with document and identity checks. It is not the only assessment.
Do I need to visit Taxiunionen?
No. The registration is digital. The criminal record extract is downloaded from Kivra and emailed to support@fairtaxi.se from the same address you used in your Fair registration.
Done with the preparation?
The operator must be registered with Fair Taxi before you as a driver can register on it. With membership, a Fair-registered operator and your documents ready, you can register as a driver.
Do you run your own operator business?
If you own the company you will drive for, the company must be registered with Fair Taxi first. Then you complete your own driver registration and are connected to your own company.
Stuck on something?
Taxiunionen answers questions about membership. Fair Taxi support handles questions about registration, documents and technical issues.
