DentroTest in English and the DGT test in English

You can take the theory test in English

The DGT offers the theory test in English for these permits:

• Car (B) and motorcycle (A1 and A2).
• Truck (C1 and C) and bus (D1 and D), and their trailer permits (C1+E, C+E, D1+E and D+E).
• Not for the moped permit (AM) or the car trailer permit (B+E): those tests are only in Spanish or in the co-official language of the region.

You choose the language when you apply for the test: your driving school states it on the application or, if you apply on your own, you do it at the Traffic Office (Jefatura de Tráfico). Check the details on the DGT website. For a permit without an English test, practise in Spanish: DentroTest has every test in Spanish too.

DentroTest in English

Every practice test is in English, with the same questions and the same Spanish traffic law as in Spanish, and with explanations in English. The syllabus of each permit is also in English.

The DGT tests in English use their own terms. DentroTest uses the same ones, taken from the official DGT questions in English, so you will recognise them in the test.

You can switch language at any time: on the website, with the language selector in the header; in the app, with the language selector on the home screen. Your results and your review queue stay the same, because the questions are the same.

The points-based licence

The tests for recovering points are also in English. The road safety awareness and re-education course (curso de sensibilización y reeducación vial) and its test are given by a centre authorised by the DGT: ask the centre which languages they are given in before you sign up.

How it has been translated

The English text has been translated with the help of artificial intelligence, with a glossary taken from the official DGT questions in English and from Spanish traffic law, and each text has gone through a second automated review.

The legal texts in English are for information only: the Spanish version prevails.
