Tianjin City has adjusted the city's taxi fare from September 1st, 2006, and established a linkage mechanism between taxi fare and oil price in the case of coal-fired surcharge. The retail price of 93# gasoline is 5.2 yuan per liter. After the starting point of the taxi freight rate and the oil price linkage mechanism, in the context of rising oil prices, Tianjin City began to add a one-yuan fuel surcharge to taxis starting from June 1, 2011. For the decline in oil prices, many car owners naturally benefit more.
However, for those who rely mainly on taxis, it is more affordable to cancel the coal-fired surcharge for taxis. Some members of the public said that the fuel surcharge is charged, because there is no taxi mileage, as long as the car, no matter how many kilometers, you have to pay a surcharge of one yuan.

In the past, Qingdao City also canceled the one-yuan taxi fuel surcharge from November 18 this year. This has also become a horizontal comparison object when Tianjin citizens talk about canceling the fuel surcharge.

However, the Director of the Charge Management Office of the Development and Reform Commission of Tianjin responded that it has received many relevant reports from the public. Although it has not yet reached the starting point for canceling the fuel surcharge, according to the trend and expectations of international oil prices, the relevant departments of Tianjin I have already started to study this matter. Whether to initiate such a price adjustment mechanism needs to be finally reported to the municipal government for approval before it can be implemented.
