The easiest way is to book a theory test online via a service provider or the government website, but no, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not the only way. Here are some alternatives.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Book a theory test online and you save yourself time, you can even pay an admin fee for a service provider – like Book Theory Test Today<\/a><\/strong> – to do it on your behalf if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re that starved for time. Alternatively, you can book a theory test online for free via the government website, but you will need to set aside a good period of time to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have to book a theory test online, there are other ways to book. We will warn you that the alternatives can be a little more time-consuming, but it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s better to have options, especially if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re internet connection decides to stop working.<\/span><\/p>\n

Book a theory test by phone<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

To book a theory test by phone<\/span>, you will need a credit or debit card and your provisional driving licence to hand. Please note that the person making a telephone theory test booking MUST be the credit or debit cardholder. Book a theory test by phone and you will get your theory test<\/a><\/strong> date and time instantly.<\/span><\/p>\n

To book via phone, call the government website between <\/span>8am and <\/span>4pm – Monday to Friday – on any of the following numbers:<\/span><\/p>\n

General number – 0300 200 1122
\n<\/span>Welsh language booking line – 0300 200 1133<\/span>
\nMinicom booking line – 0300 200 1166<\/span>
\nFax booking line – 0300 200 1177\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Book a theory test by post<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

For postal theory test bookings, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll require an application form. Forms can be obtained online, from driving theory test and practical exam centres and in some instances, from your driving instructor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Should you wish to book a theory test by post, you must send a cheque or postal order as cash payments will not be accepted. Bear in mind that the process for booking a theory test by post will take considerably longer compared to an online theory test booking<\/a><\/strong> or a booking made over the phone.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your postal theory test application form should be sent to the following address:<\/span><\/p>\n

Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA)
\n<\/span>Booking Department,
\n<\/span>PO Box 381,
\n<\/span>Manchester,
\n<\/span>M50 3UW.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bad experience when having to book a theory test online?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
