Can I find swaps in North-east England?
You can list your test and MoveMyTest will screen for possible matches using your selected centres, dates and test type. DVSA makes the final eligibility and booking decision.
Are learner details public?
No. Centre pages may show the test date, a broad morning, afternoon or evening band and whether the learner wants an earlier or later test. Exact times, identities, contact details, detailed preferences and booking references remain private.
Does MoveMyTest guarantee a swap?
No. MoveMyTest can only help identify possible peer-to-peer matches.
How does the official swap happen?
After mutual acceptance and booking-reference consent, each learner calls DVSA separately on the same day. Learner 1 requests the swap; learner 2 calls to complete it, preferably by 4pm as DVSA recommends. The swap is not complete until DVSA confirms the new bookings.
What details should I keep private?
Never share phone numbers, email addresses, licence numbers, theory certificate numbers, home address, card details or GOV.UK login details with another learner. Only booking references are shared after both learners accept and consent.
