Life in the UK Test

Do I need to take the Home Office Test?

You should take the Life in the UK test if you are applying for naturalisation as a British citizen or if you are applying for settlement or for leave to remain.

If your level of English is lower than ESOL Entry 3 and you wish to apply for naturalisation, you will need to attend combined English language (ESOL) and citizenship classes instead. Most local further education or community colleges run these courses.

Where can I take the test?

There are more than 90 test centres around the country where you can take your test. Most of them are also learning centres where you can brush up on your language or computer skills. Find out where your nearest test centres are in the Find a test centre section of this website.

How do I book the Life in the UK test?

You can contact the test centre by telephone or in person. They will advise you what day you can go and do the test. There is usually a minimum waiting period of 7 days from the date of making your appointment and your appointment date.

How much will the test cost and how do I pay for it?

The Life in the UK test costs £34. You can pay the fee at the test centre before you take the test. When making your appointment you can find out the best way to pay.
