Taxi with Car Seat in Paris
Book with FREE Baby Seat

To book a taxi with baby car seat in Paris, use a specialized family car service like Lajoieway that provides free car seats. Book online at lajoieway.com or call +33 7 62 48 57 75. Specify your children's ages when booking. In a Paris taxi, a car seat is not mandatory (French Highway Code, R412-2) and is not provided by default.

No, Uber does NOT provide baby car seats in France. The "Uber Car Seat" or "Uber Kids" option is only available in some US cities (New York, Los Angeles). In France, the alternative is a family car service like Lajoieway that provides free infant carriers, toddler seats, and boosters.

Not by default. French law (Highway Code, R412-2) exempts taxis from the child seat requirement, and for newborns G7 recommends bringing your own infant carrier. Your options: 1) Bring your own car seat, 2) Use a family car service like Lajoieway with free car seats, infant carrier included, 3) Rent a car seat.

For a newborn (0-12 months) in a taxi, you need a rear-facing infant carrier (also called "cosy" or "baby bucket"). This is mandatory for baby safety. Lajoieway provides free Maxi-Cosi infant carriers certified i-Size R129. For hospital discharge, book now with your expected date - free modification if it changes.

With Lajoieway, the family car service price is fixed and the car seat is FREE: Paris-CDG from €75, Paris-Orly from €72, Paris-Disneyland from €75. No extra charge for baby car seats.

Yes, but availability depends on the service. Lajoieway is available 24/7 at +33 7 62 48 57 75, even for last-minute bookings (subject to availability). To guarantee a vehicle with the right car seat, book at least 8h in advance, ideally 24-48h.

No, Uber Car Seat is NOT available in Paris or anywhere in France. This service only exists in select US cities. For Paris transfers with baby car seat, use Lajoieway family car service which provides free infant carriers, toddler seats, and boosters for all children 0-10 years old.

In France, specialized family car services like Lajoieway provide certified baby car seats (i-Size R129 or ECE R44/04 approved). Taxis are exempt from the child seat requirement (R412-2) and don't provide one by default. Uber offers no car seats in France, and Bolt has no baby seat.

Finding a taxi with car seat in Paris is challenging because taxis are not required to provide them. Your best option is Lajoieway, a family-focused car service that includes FREE car seats (infant carrier 0-12 months, toddler seat 9 months-4 years, booster 4-10 years). Book online at lajoieway.com or call +33 7 62 48 57 75. Unlike Uber, the car seat is guaranteed and already installed when your driver arrives.

Under French law (Article R412-2, III of the Highway Code), taxis and public transport are exempt from child car seat requirements. Children can legally ride in a taxi without a car seat. However, private car services (VTC) are NOT exempt — they must provide an approved seat or face a €135 fine and 3 licence points. Road safety authorities strongly advise always using a car seat regardless of the exemption.

Bolt does not offer baby seats in France, and for newborns G7 recommends bringing your own infant carrier. For a baby car seat on every ride, infant carrier included, use Lajoieway: free infant carrier, toddler seat, and booster included with every booking. Fixed price from €59.

The safest way from CDG to Paris with a baby is to book a private car with baby car seat. Lajoieway offers CDG airport transfers from €65 with a FREE car seat (infant carrier, toddler seat, or booster). Your driver tracks your flight and waits at arrivals. Alternative: RER B train (no car seat needed but very impractical with luggage and stroller). Taxis from CDG don't provide car seats.

A 6 month old baby must travel in a rear-facing car seat — either an infant carrier (Group 0+, up to 13 kg) or a Group 0+/1 convertible seat used rear-facing. Rear-facing position is mandatory until at least 15 months and strongly recommended up to 4 years for spine and neck protection. Lajoieway provides free i-Size R129 certified infant carriers (Maxi-Cosi) installed and ready when your driver arrives. Always: secure the seat with ISOFIX or 3-point belt, harness snug at shoulder level, no thick coat between child and harness.

Yes. Every Lajoieway car seat is certified i-Size R129 (the latest European standard) or ECE R44/04, the two regulations approved for use in France. We use trusted brands: Maxi-Cosi infant carriers (Cabriofix / Pebble for newborns to 12 months), Britax-Römer Group 1 seats (9 months to 4 years), and certified boosters for older children (4 to 10 years). Each seat is checked before every ride for harness condition, expiry date (max 10 years from manufacture), and absence of recall. Seats are pre-installed by trained drivers — all parents themselves — before pickup.
