Simple process
How it works
Five simple steps from listing your test to completing the official DVSA swap. You never message another learner directly — DTC handles the matching and notifications.
Create your listing
Enter your current centre, date, time, test type and the swap you would consider. DTC only asks for the minimum details.
DTC finds matches
We check DVSA rules — test type, centre compatibility and the 10-working-day notice window — and propose compatible matches.
Review & accept
You get an SMS and email alert. Review the proposed match, then accept or decline in your private match room within 2 business days.
Share & call DVSA
When both learners accept, one volunteers to call DVSA. Booking references are shared only after both consent.
Why DTC?
Why use The DTC Test Swap?
Free forever
No subscription, no success fee, no card details, no hidden charges. DTC Test Swap is free for learners.
DVSA-aware matching
We only propose matches that follow DVSA rules: same test type, compatible centre rules and the required notice period.
Privacy-first
We never collect your driving licence number, theory certificate number, home address, card details or GOV.UK login. Your booking reference is encrypted.
Official process only
DTC only helps you find another learner. The actual swap is completed directly with DVSA — no booking automation or scraping.

The full swap journey
Create your listing
Add your current test centre, date, time and what you want to swap to.
DTC finds matches
We check DVSA rules and propose compatible learners automatically.
Review & accept
You get an email and SMS alert. Accept or decline in your private match room.
Both learners agree
When both accept, one volunteers to call DVSA and both consent to share references.
Call DVSA together
The caller rings 0300 200 1122. DVSA calls the other learner for security checks.
Swap complete
DVSA changes both bookings. Either learner marks the match complete.
This is a simplified example. Real matches depend on DVSA rules, test type compatibility and both learners accepting.
