Hackney Carriage Insurance

Hackney carriage insurance covers vehicles that are licensed to ply for hire on the street and pick up passengers from taxi ranks. This includes the iconic London black cab as well as provincial hackney carriages licensed by local councils across the UK.

Insuring a hackney carriage requires specialist underwriting. Factors such as the licensing authority, vehicle type, driver experience, claims history, and area of operation all affect the available options. As a specialist broker, we work with insurers who understand these nuances.

Whether you operate a single hackney carriage or a fleet of council-plated vehicles, we can search the market for cover suited to your circumstances. Our brokers understand the difference between metropolitan and provincial licensing and can guide you through the process.
