Pass the Cyprus driving theory test — first time 🇨🇾

You can take the theory exam and apply for a learner's licence from age 17½. The learner's licence lets you practise on public roads with an accompanying driver. You can sit the practical test once you are 18 and have held the learner's licence for at least 21 days.

Bring your ID card (a passport and residence document if you are not Cypriot) and the €10 exam fee to the Road Transport Department. To apply for your learner's licence on the same visit, also bring form TOM 7Δ, two recent 45 x 35 mm photos and proof that you live in Cyprus. Call 22807000 before you go, because some offices give appointments.Read the full guide
