What do you do if you do not have a valid ID for the theory test?

To take the theory test at the Swedish Transport Administration, you must prove your identity. On their website, you can read about the different ID documents that are approved to identify you. In the event that you do not have a valid ID document, you can send an application to the Swedish Transport Administration to ask for an exemption from the requirement to identify yourself.

In this application, your identity must be verified with the help of someone else. In this case, you need a parent or partner, for example, to confirm that the information about your identity is correct.

However, you need to do this well in advance, as the application must have been received by the Swedish Transport Administration at least one week before the test time. At the time of the test, you also need to bring the person who certified your identity to the Swedish Transport Administration. This is because they need to show their own ID card and be able to strengthen their own identity.
