The company’s aim is to develop Yandex services for Azerbaijani users, in particular, to launch the Yandex.Taxi service in Baku in the near future, according to the source.

In connection with the opening of a Yandex office in Azerbaijan, the Moscow office has already solved the issues concerning license certificates and programs, the source said.

"The issues related to the navigation system are currently being solved.”

The Yandex.Taxi app is accessible on the devices running Android and iOS operating systems.
