How long does the Theory Test take?

AUGUST 2024

You’ve got 1 hour and 20 minutes (57 minutes for the multiple choice questions) to complete your driving theory test. Once you’ve submitted the first part, you can either have a 3 minute break or carry straight on with the hazard perception test, which takes 20 minutes.

The easiest way to book your theory test is online.
You’ll need the following in order to book it:
Your provisional UK driving license number.
A valid email address – if you don’t have one, book by phone. You can contact the DVSA on 0300 200 1122
A valid credit or debit card.

You will need to bring your photocard driving license with you. You won’t be allowed to take the test if you don’t bring along the right form of ID, and you’ll lose your booking fee.

If you only have the old paper license, you will also need to bring along your signed driving license and a valid passport.

There are 2 parts to the theory test:
Part 1 – a series of multiple choice questions. – > 57 minutes
Part 2 - a hazard perception test. --> 20 minutes
