Can I find swaps in North-east England?
You can list your test and DTC will look for compatible learners using your selected centres, dates, test type and DVSA rules.
Are learner details public?
No. Public pages show aggregate counts only, not names, contact details or exact listing details.
Does DTC guarantee a swap?
No. DTC can only help identify possible peer-to-peer matches.
How does the official swap happen?
Both learners complete the official process by phone with DVSA after accepting a compatible match.
What if this is a Northern Ireland centre?
Northern Ireland tests are managed by DVA/nidirect. NI directory pages are visible, but live swap matching is disabled unless DTC enables DVA support.
What details should I keep private?
Never share licence numbers, theory certificate numbers, home address, card details or GOV.UK login details with another learner.
