Declared Price Monitored/Controlled Services
Public Motor Vehicles (PMVs) and Taxis
PMV and taxi rates are also declared service under Section 10 of the Prices Regulation Act (Chapter 320) for price control purposes. The Commission is the authority responsible for reviewing and granting fare increases for PMV and taxi fares for all routes throughout the country.
In January 2005, the Commission granted an interim fare increase of 20 toea to apply to adult commuters for PMVs operating within the National Capital District (NCD). This increased the fares for adult commuters in NCD to 70 toea from 50 toea. High school and community school students are to still pay the old fares of 30 toea and 20 toea respectively. As stated, this was an interim measure pending a major review into the PMV and Taxi Industry in the country to thoroughly ascertain all PMV and taxi fares for all routes in the country.
