Cooperation with Yandex-Taxi for drivers involved in the transportation of people by personal transport, of course, can become a rather profitable business. After all, this convenient Internet service is very popular among the population, and therefore Yandex taxi drivers have a very good opportunity to make money.
It is not particularly difficult to become a partner of Yandex-Taxi. But it provides access to its software through which customers can order transportation, this service, of course, not all drivers.
General requirements for the driver
Anyone who has passed a medical examination and has the rights of the corresponding category can work in the Yandex-taxi service. The only thing in this service is an age limit for drivers.
If a citizen who wants to earn money as a taxi driver is not yet 23 years old, he will not be able to become a Yandex-taxi partner. The applicant's driving experience must be at least 5 years.
Requirements for the car
According to the rules of the service, you can work in Yandex-Taxi exclusively on a foreign-made car. In this case, the car must also be quite new. Transportation by car over 5 years old is not allowed in this service.
Of course, the car of the applicant for connection to Yandex-Taxi must be fully functional. That is, the driver will need to provide a document confirming the timely passage of the technical inspection.
Depending on the brand of the car, Yandex-Taxi further assigns it one of the classes, on which the partner's earnings will subsequently depend:
- economy;
- business;
- comfort;
- minivan.
For example, the economy class in this service includes cars costing up to 450 thousand rubles. In the future, the car, of course, will have to be equipped with all the necessary paraphernalia - "checkers", a taximeter, a walkie-talkie.
In which cities can you become a partner
The Yandex-Taxi service started operating in Russia relatively recently. And therefore, it is still possible to become its partner, unfortunately, not yet in all cities of Russia. Currently, only residents of Moscow, St. Petersburg and some regional centers of the country can cooperate with this system.
For example, the Yandex-Taxi service operates in such large cities as Ufa, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg, Rostov, Samara, Sochi, Krasnoyarsk.
How to work?
Only a legal entity can become a Yandex-Taxi partner. That is, a driver who wants to become a taxi driver of this service must either register for individual entrepreneurship, or simply become an employee of an already operating Yandex-Taxi partner company.
It is relatively easy to issue an individual entrepreneur in our country today. The convenience of a full-fledged partnership with Yandex-Taxi is considered, first of all, to be able to fully control one's income. But the driver will, of course, have to open a bank account and deal with the tax authorities.
Therefore, if they wish to become a partner of "Yandez-Taxi", it is only for drivers who decide to take up the transportation of people seriously and for a long time to issue an individual entrepreneur. For beginners, who just want to try their hand at this type of activity, it will be much more convenient to first work for a company already cooperating with Yandex.
The advantage in this case will be, first of all, that the driver does not have to spend money on all sorts of bureaucratic procedures. The disadvantage of such cooperation is basically only the risk of being left without income. After all, in this case, a third-party company will pay the taxi driver's salary, which with some degree of probability may turn out to be fraudulent.

Yandex-taxi drivers pass exams in the dispatching taxi companies - partners of the service. Basically, only the applicant's knowledge of the main streets and roads of the city is checked on it. If the exam is not passed, the driver will be able to pass it again only after 3-6 months.
If desired, the Yandex-Taxi partner can refuse the exam. But its successful delivery will increase the rating in the system and the priority when placing orders. The service exam usually lasts no more than 40-50 minutes.
Own taxi station
Yandex Taxi works, of course, not only with individual taxi drivers, but also with official taxi companies. An entrepreneur who decides to organize his own business and cooperate with the service in this way can register both as an individual entrepreneur and an LLC. In this case, the service partner will be able to receive additional passive income from the drivers attracted by him.
Yandex-Taxi concludes contracts only with those taxi companies that have at least 5 taxis that meet all the requirements of the service. In this case, the entrepreneur, among other things, will need to purchase special software from Yandex.
