The Yandex Taxi service is included in the state register of monopolists of Kyrgyzstan. This was reported by the Antimonopoly Service of Kyrgyzstan.
“[…] The republican registry has been supplemented by the business entities Yandex.Taxi.Corp LLC,” the message says. Therefore, the company is recognized in Kyrgyzstan as having a dominant position on the market.
In November 2023, Russia’s Federal Antimonopoly Service criticized Yandex Taxi for commissions, pricing, and blocking of passengers and drivers, and previously recognized the company as the dominant service in the market and threatened antitrust measures.
In December 2023, Yandex Taxi contributed about $6.5 million to the state fund of Kazakhstan after an antitrust investigation, as a result of which the company took administrative responsibility.
