Najczęściej zadawane pytania

How many questions are on the Spanish DGT theory test?

There are 30 questions, each with three possible answers and one correct. At least one question shows a video of a risk situation, such as a roundabout, merging or overtaking, before the question appears.

What is the pass mark and how long do I have?

The DGT pages we checked confirm 30 questions but do not state the pass mark or the time limit, and they say the time is extended to allow for the video. Our mock exam asks for 27 correct answers out of 30, a high target, and is not timed. Check the exact rules with your driving school or the DGT.

What happens if I fail the theory test?

One application fee covers two sittings. If you fail twice, you must make a new application and pay the fee again.

Can I learn to drive at 17 in Spain?

Not yet. A 2025 EU directive allows a B licence at 17 with an experienced companion, but Spain must first put it into national law, which it has until 26 November 2028. Until then the minimum age is 18.

Can I exchange my foreign licence instead of taking the test?

If you live in Spain and your licence comes from a country that has an exchange agreement with Spain, you can usually exchange it at the DGT. Your original licence is then withdrawn. If there is no agreement, you must take the Spanish tests.

What is the V-16 light I must carry?

Since 1 January 2026 a connected V-16 warning light is the only legal way to warn traffic that your car is stopped on the road. It flashes and sends its location to the DGT 3.0 platform. The DGT recommends putting it on the roof.
