Best DGT Theory Test Practice Sites for English Speakers in Spain (2026)

DGTTestPro is purpose-built for English-speaking expats preparing the DGT theory exam in Spain. The bilingual format shows Spanish and English simultaneously on every question - not as a translation mode you switch into. That distinction matters: the real DGT exam is in Spanish, so you want to recognise the phrasing, not just the English translation.

PracticaTest is the most established English-language DGT prep platform in Spain. It has been running since 2008, has 255,000+ registered students, and provides 24/7 WhatsApp and phone support - a real advantage for learners who get stuck at odd hours. Its question bank is the largest of any English-language DGT platform.

• - 3,500 total DGT exams in the question bank
• - 24/7 support via WhatsApp and phone
• - Active since 2008 - Spain's largest online driving school

AutoviaTest covers 65+ countries and is a solid choice for someone who has recently moved and still needs to pass a theory test in their home country, or who wants AI-coached study with gamification. For Spain specifically, the question bank is shallower than the top two and the platform is not built around the DGT format.

• - 65+ countries, 24+ languages
• - Car, motorcycle, truck, bus, moped categories

Honourable mention: myDGTtest

Free to start without registration; Premium pricing is not listed publicly. No expat exchange guides or city content.

Not for English speakers: TodoTest

TodoTest is one of the best-known free DGT test sites in Spain, run by Autoinet Interactivo in Barcelona and active since at least 2007. It covers every licence category from AM to CAP, claims more than 4 million users and 2,500 exams, and its iOS app is rated 4.8 from about 34,000 ratings. The catch for this guide: it is Spanish only. There is no English question bank and no English interface, and users have been asking for one on its forum since 2007. The free tier is ad-supported with a daily cap; paid packs for Permiso B cost € 7,99 for three months, € 14,99 for six or € 39,99 for a year and add unlimited daily tests, explanations and the theory manual. If you read Spanish comfortably it is a solid free option; if you want the exam in English it is not a candidate.

How to prepare for the DGT theory exam in English

1. 1

   Register on your chosen platform and work through the free tier first to judge the interface. If the layout confuses you before you have paid, it will not improve after.

2. 2

   Work through topic-by-topic tests before attempting full simulations. The DGT exam covers 9 theory chapters - weak chapters tank your overall score disproportionately.

3. 3

   Run full simulations - 30 questions, 30 minutes, pass mark 27 - at least 5 times before booking. If you are consistently hitting 28-30, you are ready. If not, identify the weak chapter and drill it.

4. 4

   Book your exam slot on the DGT website (sede.dgt.gob.es) and select English as your language. Bring your TIE and NIE on the day - not just your passport.
