⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Use only the official taxi rank outside the arrivals lobby; ignore anyone inside the terminal offering a taxi or fixed fare.
  • Make sure the taxi meter starts at ¥500 (new tariff from 20 April 2026); expressway tolls are added on top of the fare, not included.
  • Do not use unlicensed 'taxi' drivers; Tokyo ride-hailing apps dispatch licensed taxis only, and late at night the official rank is more reliable.
  • If you book a private transfer, confirm the price includes tolls and late-night fees before you pay.
