Taxis and private hire cars provide another way of commuting between places. The Point-to-Point (P2P) Regulatory Framework was introduced in 2020 following the passing of the Point-to-Point Passenger Transport Industry Bill. To ensure the continued relevance of the P2P regulatory framework as commuter needs and the industry structure evolve, LTA has conducted a review of the P2P industry structure and regulatory framework. Following the completion of Phase 1 of the review, LTA will be making several policy changes to improve the availability, resilience and inclusivity of P2P services.

P2P service operators must apply for and receive a Ride-Hail Service Operator Licence (RSOL) or Car-Pool Service Operator Licence (CSOL) to operate if they:

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

To apply for a RSOL or CSOL, P2P operators may contact LTA_P2P_application@lta.gov.sg. A non-refundable application fee of $2,500 applies for each application.
