Do Antalya taxis always charge by the meter, no matter how you book them?

TL;DR
Yes — by law, Antalya taxis always run on the meter, whether you hail one at a taxi stand, press a taxi call button, or book via an app. For transfers, avoid prepaying in advance — pay after the ride, just like a regular taxi.

Transfer services sometimes push for prepayment, but the logic should be the same as with a regular taxi: pay after the ride, not in advance, to avoid getting scammed.

All taxis in Antalya operate strictly on the meter — this is required by law, regardless of whether you hailed the car on the street or booked it via a mobile app.
