£7 every time a vehicle enters a terminal drop-off zone at Terminals 2, 3, 4 or 5, around the clock, and taxis and private-hire cars pay it too. You pay by card online or by phone, never at the zone. Blue Badge holders can apply for a 100% discount at least 14 days ahead. More detail is in our London Heathrow Airport drop-off charges guide.
