The official test costs £50 an attempt. Ours are free and match the format: 24 questions in 45 minutes, 18 to pass.
No account, no payment, and every answer explained.
Getting to the test in Exeter
Exeter St Davids handles main-line trains and Exeter Central is nearer the shops and offices. The M5 ends just outside the city, so it is the last motorway junction before Cornwall.
We publish no centre addresses or opening hours, here or anywhere on this site. The list changes, and a stale address costs someone a £50 appointment. Your postcode on the official service returns the centres you can actually book.
Before you book
The rest is set nationally and is no different in Exeter:
Life in the UK test in Exeter: common questions
- Is there a Life in the UK test centre in Exeter?
We do not publish addresses or opening hours, because the list of centres changes. Enter your postcode on GOV.UK and the service returns what you can book across South West England, nearest first.
- How far would I have to travel from Exeter for the test?
The nearest we cover is Plymouth, roughly 36 miles from Exeter, so there is no quick alternative. Book as early as you can.
- What if there are no appointments left in Exeter?
Book any centre the service offers you, not only the closest. From Exeter that means Plymouth at about 36 miles or Bridgend at about 54 miles, measured in a straight line. One of those often has a slot sooner.
