Rebooking your test
You have to pay the full amount again if you do not pass your test and want to book another one.
Evening and weekend driving tests
Driving test centres do not offer evening and weekend driving tests all of the time.
All available evening and weekend driving test appointments are shown when you book your driving test or find an earlier test date.
Tests taken from 4:30pm onwards count as evening tests.
There are different costs for tests in Northern Ireland.
