    How we check Yandex.Taxi

    No evidence of problems with Yandex.Taxi. Our last recorded check found it behaving normally. That does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.

    Every check runs a four-tier cascade and stops at the first tier that gives a clear answer: Yandex.Taxi's official status feed, then a direct HTTP probe, then an ICMP network ping, and finally reports from visitors. The Verification tier box above tells you which one produced the verdict you are looking at. When enough separate people report a problem for it to be well outside what Yandex.Taxi normally sees, that counts as evidence too, which is how a partial fault can show here before an operator's own status page catches up.

    Yandex.Taxi (taxi.yandex.com) is re-checked continuously, and this page picks up any change on its own, with no refresh needed.

    Common Yandex.Taxi problems users report

    • App shows no available drivers or all drivers appear offline
    • Ride request hangs indefinitely without matching to a driver
    • Payment fails at checkout even with valid payment method
    • Map and GPS location not updating or showing incorrect position

    What to do when Yandex.Taxi is not working

    First check the banner above. If it shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Yandex.Taxi's side and waiting is usually the only option. If it shows nothing wrong, Check the Yandex.Taxi app for service status notifications or maintenance alerts. If you're a driver, verify your license and vehicle documents are current in your Driver Profile, as expired credentials can block order acceptance. Restart the app and check that it has permission to access your location in real time, which is required for the matching algorithm. If you're a passenger, confirm your phone number is verified in your account settings, as Yandex.Taxi uses this for driver contact.

    About Yandex.Taxi

    Frequently asked questions

    Is Yandex.Taxi down right now?

    No. Our checks are finding no problems with Yandex.Taxi right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Yandex.Taxi continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.

    What usually goes wrong with Yandex.Taxi?

    The problems visitors report most often on this page are can't connect, can't log in, orders or tracking, checkout or payment, lag or disconnects, website / app down, no response / timing out and no notifications. Those are the options the report button offers for Yandex.Taxi, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.

    Why is Yandex.Taxi not matching drivers for me when this page says it is fine?

    Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Yandex.Taxi specifically, the matching engine, payment processor, or GPS location service can fail independently, affecting only some users in certain regions or with specific payment methods. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.

    How do I tell whether it is Yandex.Taxi or my own connection?

    For Yandex.Taxi, try requesting a ride on a different device or network, and check if the driver list populates within 30 seconds. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.

    What should I do while Yandex.Taxi is down?

    If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Yandex.Taxi's side. Specifically: do not repeatedly cancel and rerequest rides, as this can lock your account or trigger fraud detection, making the problem worse when service returns. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.

    How does status.buzz check Yandex.Taxi?

    Continuously, around the clock. Yandex.Taxi does not publish a machine-readable status feed, so we cannot read a verdict from them. We probe taxi.yandex.com directly over HTTP, fall back to an ICMP ping if that is inconclusive, and weigh reports from visitors. That means we can tell you the service is unreachable, but not what Yandex.Taxi says about it. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.

    Is status.buzz affiliated with Yandex.Taxi?

    No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Yandex.Taxi or taxi.yandex.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Yandex.Taxi's own support, not us.
