Taxis and private hire cars provide another way of commuting between places. To ensure that commuters can continue to benefit from an evolving Point-to-Point (P2P) sector, LTA introduced a new regulatory framework in October 2020 following the passing of the Point-to-Point Passenger Transport Industry Bill. The new regulatory framework focuses on the following areas:

P2P service operators must apply for and receive the relevant licenses to operate if:

• They provide ride-hailing or car-pooling services; and
• Have 800 or more vehicles on their platforms.

To apply for a Ride-Hail Service Operator Licence (RSOL) or Car-Pool Service Operator Licence (CSOL), P2P operators may contact LTA_P2P_application@lta.gov.sg. A non-refundable application fee of $2,500 applies for each application.
