Overview
- The Xunta said it has forwarded nearly 250 VTC-related infringement reports to councils in 2025, including 116 in Santiago, 112 in A Coruña and 17 in Vigo.
- Authorities reminded operators and platforms such as Uber, Bolt and Cabify that services must be between municipalities, with contracts on board, no external signs, RCTV reporting and a 15‑minute minimum pre‑booking.
- A new Madrid company, Flatiron Trust, joined Black Cars, Cibeles Confort Cars and Serviauto in running VTC fleets linked to Vigo using Xunta interurban authorizations.
- Local reporting cites vehicles listed at “calle Almagro, 44 – 28010 – Abaixo – Pontevedra,” an address that does not exist in Pontevedra, with taxi drivers alleging erroneous authorizations.
- Vigo has warned of very serious fines ranging from €2,001 to €6,000 for urban operations, taxi drivers have requested a slow‑drive protest, and the Unauto association says firms are authorized and is appealing identifications and sanctions.
