The easiest way to find out when the driving test was passed is by checking the back of the photocard driving licence. The date of passing is shown under column 10, formatted as DD.MM.YYYY, next to the car symbol. Alternatively, this information can also be accessed online through the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) service using the driving licence number, National Insurance number, and postcode on the driving licence.
If this information is not readily available or the driving licence is not at hand, the official DVSA online service can also be used to check driving test details, provided there is access to the UK driving licence number and theory test pass certificate number or driving test reference number.
To summarize:
- Check the date under column 10 on the back of the photocard driving licence.
- Use the DVLA online driving licence service with required personal information.
- Use the DVSA online service to check the test details if reference or licence number is known.
Without access to the driving licence or personal details, the exact date cannot be retrieved here. For precise information, the user should check their driving licence or use official UK government services mentioned above.
