Frequently asked questions
How do I book a theory test at the Manchester centre?
Book through the official GOV.UK service (£23) and choose Manchester as your preferred centre. Avoid third-party booking sites — they charge a markup for the same slot.
What do I need to bring on test day?
Your UK photocard driving licence (provisional or full). Arrive early — if you’re late or forget your licence you can’t sit the test and you lose the fee.
What is the pass mark at Manchester?
The same everywhere in Great Britain: 43 out of 50 multiple-choice questions, plus 44 out of 75 on hazard perception, both in one sitting.
