When you pass the theory test (knowledge test) for a category B driving license, you have a limited time frame to take your practical driving test. It is important to know how long the theory test remains valid so that you can plan your training effectively.
A passed theory test for a category B driving license is valid for four months. During this period, you must take and pass your driving test.
If you do not pass the theory test, you are not allowed to take the driving test. In that case, you must book a new theory test and obtain a passing result before you can take the driving test.

If you have not taken and passed your driving test within four months, you must retake the theory test before booking a new driving test.
To avoid this, it is important to carefully plan your driving education and book your tests well in advance.
