Who we are

The Metropolitan Taxi Institute (IMT) is an independent body that has been dependent on the Metropolitan Transport Body (EMT) since 28 May 1992. Its work resides in the administration and management of the taxi service of the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona.
The IMT is the institution that regulates the provision of taxi services in Barcelona and the metropolitan area. In this sense:

• It authorises taxi driver aptitude certificates and the taxi driver permit.
• It establishes the rules and terms for the transfer of licenses.
• It determines the disciplinary system applied to the service.
• It authorises the vehicle models for use in the provision of the taxi service.
• It regulates metropolitan inspections.
• It proposes the annual taxi fare rates to the Price Commission of the Catalan Government, after consulting the associations that represent the sector.
