Barcelona has a metered taxi fleet governed by the Institut Metropolità del Taxi (Metropolitan Taxi Institute), composed of more than 10,000 cars which can be easily identified by their yellow and black livery. A green light on top of the taxi indicates its availability, just wave your hand to call them. There is also a fleet of taxis adapted for people with discapacity or reduced mobility. The meter (it is compulsory to use them) will indicate the price to pay, but an extra fee is charged when taking it at the airport or when you carry luggage with you, etc. Prices are shown on a sticker inside the cab.
