Insurance of CityBee cars
All CityBee cars are covered by compulsory Civil Liability Insurance, so you do not need to worry about the insurance. The car is equipped with an insurer-compliant, satellite-linked security system that will protect CityBee from possible theft.
To learn more about your financial responsibility in case of an accident, check out our article: “What is my financial liability in the event of a car accident?”

When does the CityBee subscription plan become active?
The plan is activated on the day of purchase. You will receive an email notification confirming the activation immediately after the purchase.
Temporary lock with a key
If you want to use the car for longer than travelling from point A to point B, lock the car with a key at intermediate stops and take the keys with you. Do not mark the trip as complete in the app. If needed, you can continue your trip using the same car at any time. Only mark the trip as complete in the app when you no longer wish to use the car. Please note that if you lock the car with the key, if it has not been used for some time, but you have not completed the reservation via the app, the price of the travel time will continue to be calculated.
Extra fees
There are no registration or account creation fees. You only pay for the time you use the vehicle and the kilometers driven. Detailed pricing information is available on the “Pricing” page, while any additional fees and penalties are listed below in this Pricelist.
We strongly encourage you to use CityBee vehicles responsibly and return them in good condition. However, additional fees may apply if you fail to comply with the Terms and Conditions of the agreement or the rules for using the services.
Prices are available on the web pages:
LT – https://citybee.lt/en/pricing/;
LV – https://citybee.lv/en/pricing/;
EE – https://citybee.ee/en/pricing/.
The Terms discuss fines and conditions, principles and procedure of imposing them, whereas specific types of fines and their specific amounts are indicated in the Pricelist, which can be periodically updated. In any case, the User must get familiar with the Pricelist in the App, applicable to each reservation and currently valid before they confirm each reservation.
Please be aware that driving Cargo vehicles on motor highways requires payment. Drivers must either pay a user toll or present a document confirming toll payment, such as a vignette, in paper or electronic form. For more information about vignettes in Lithuania, and Estonia, please visit: Road taxes.
When driving within the borders of Latvia, vignettes are included in the price and drivers do not have to purchase them. If the trip is planned outside Latvia and the state border will be crossed, the driver must purchase a vignette.
Minimum trip price is the minimum amount payable for the services, which is deducted from the Payment account after unlocking the car or extending the reservation (if the minimum amount is exceeded, the remaining amount due is debited no later than at the end of the trip, and if the minimum amount is not reached – the difference is not returned). The minimum trip price (its size) for each car is indicated in the App.
