How the official exam works
The Life in the UK Test is a computer-based exam available through the official government service. It is required for many British citizenship and settlement applications, subject to the rules and exemptions for the individual route. The assessment consists of 24 multiple-choice questions drawn from the official handbook, Life in the United Kingdom: A Guide for New Residents.
You have 45 minutes to complete it, and you need to answer at least 18 questions correctly (a 75% pass mark) to pass.
The questions above are drawn from the same topic areas as the real exam: government, history, culture, society, and everyday life. For a full walkthrough (topics, booking, cost, pass rates, exemptions and more) read our complete 2026 Life in the UK guide.
