How much is a taxi from Charles de Gaulle Airport into Paris?

The cost of the taxi trip between CDG and Paris is between 50 Euros and 60 Euros, depending on the route taken and the destination in Paris.

As of February 2026, taxi fares between Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and central Paris are regulated by fixed flat rates, providing high-value predictability for travelers. If your destination is on the Right Bank (Rive Droite), the northern half of the city, the set fare is €56. For destinations on the Left Bank (Rive Gauche), the southern half, the fare is €65. These rates are all-inclusive for up to four passengers and their luggage; however, a "reservation fee" of €4 for an immediate booking or €7 for a future booking may apply if you call ahead. It is a "pro-move" to only use the official taxi queue outside the terminals and ignore "wildcat" drivers in the arrivals hall. In 2026, all official Parisian taxis are required to accept credit and debit cards, and the journey typically takes between 35 and 60 minutes depending on the notorious Parisian "Périphérique" traffic.
