The Licence Journey
Registration & Eyesight Test
Register with one of the Singapore driving centres and complete the required eyesight checks before booking theory training or tests.
Basic Theory Test (BTT)
BTT is the foundation theory step before applying for a Provisional Driving Licence for learner practical training.
Provisional Driving Licence (PDL)
A valid PDL allows learner motorists to take practical driving or riding lessons during training.
Car Path: Class 3 / 3A
- Start with BTT for theory foundation.
- Use PDL for learner practical lessons once eligible.
- Check official SPF and driving-centre pages for current booking steps.
Motorcycle Path: Class 2B
- Start with BTT before the learner riding path.
- Use RTT study support for motorcycle-specific theory before practical riding preparation.
- Use official pages for current class-specific requirements.
