How
to book, change or cancel your theory test
appointment
Theory
test appointments can be booked, and subject
to three clear working days notice, be changed
and cancelled using our online booking service
or the telephone. You can also download
an application form and apply by post.
Before
you can take your theory test you will
need to make sure you have a valid provisional
driving licence. You can apply for a provisional
driving licence from the Driver and Vehicle
Licensing Agency (DVLA). The application
form (form D1) can be obtained from your
local Post Office.
Once
you have a valid provisional driving licence
you can book your theory test. Waiting
times vary from region to region, but
the target is that 95 per cent of theory
test candidates receive an appointment
date within two weeks of their preferred
date.
