Copenhagen, September 26, 2025 — Denmark’s competition watchdog has opened a review of Uber International Holding B.V.’s completed acquisition of Greenfleet Holding A/S, owner of Dantaxi.
The deal, completed on May 27, did not meet the Danish turnover thresholds under competition rules and was therefore not subject to prior merger control. However, the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority (DCCA), on August 25, directed the merging companies to file a notification of the completed merger, making the deal conditional on approval by the DCCA.
Dantaxi, which describes itself as Denmark’s largest taxi company, operates through Kørselskontoret Dantaxi A/S in western Denmark and Dantaxi4x48 A/S in eastern Denmark, selling services to private, public-sector, and corporate customers. Before the merger, Dantaxi offered bookings via its own Dantaxi app; post-merger, its rides are also sold via the Uber app. Dantaxi also offers minibus services and so-called “party taxis.”
Uber provides a global mobility platform spanning ride-hailing, micromobility, rentals, public transport integrations, and taxis. In Denmark, Uber began cooperating in January 2025 with Drivr Danmark A/S (a taxi dispatch office in which Uber holds 25–33.32%). Pre-merger, Uber brokered taxi rides for Drivr via the Uber app, and now the international cab aggregator intermediates rides for both Drivr and Dantaxi.
The authority is seeking comments from interested parties on the merger’s effects. Submissions are due by noon on October 7, 2025.
