Pass the Life in the UK Test
first time
Full mock tests, condensed study notes, and smart practice tools for the official Life in the UK Test — required for British citizenship and ILR applicants — based entirely on the government handbook.
We built Britizenship because most free practice sites give you a wall of generic questions and move on. Here's what's actually different:
Britizenship is £9.99 once — however many weeks you take to prepare, that's the whole bill. No renewal, nothing to remember to cancel, no surprise charge after you've already passed and moved on.
Complete all 46 tests and still don't pass the real Life in the UK Test? Show us your Completion Certificate and your test result within 90 days — we'll refund your £9.99. Full terms.
Practice by chapter, not just by number. 6 extra tests mapped to the official handbook's own chapters, so you can drill weak topics instead of retaking the same generic mix.
Every question is explained — every time. You get the reasoning whether you're right or wrong, with real context from the handbook, not just "correct answer: C".
A free eligibility calculator most sites don't have. Check exactly when you qualify for citizenship or ILR based on your own residence history — not just test practice.
Found a mistake? Tell us and we'll fix it. A one-click "report an issue" link on every question — most practice sites give you no way to flag a wrong answer at all.
A condensed question bank for last-minute revision. Grouped by test type, so the night before your test you can skim exactly what matters instead of re-reading the whole handbook.
Mistakes Mode is free for everyone. Every wrong answer is saved automatically so you can drill your actual weak spots, not just retake full tests from scratch.
Install it like an app — no store, no download. Add Britizenship to your phone's home screen straight from the browser in a few taps, and open it like any other app. No App Store, no Google Play, nothing to buy or install.
Life in the UK Test practice, in one place
The Life in the UK Test is a computer-based exam taken at an approved test centre. It has 24 multiple-choice questions, you get 45 minutes, and you need 18 correct (75%) to pass. Most people sit it for British citizenship or Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). Many people search for it as the British citizenship test or UK citizenship test: it is the same exam.
Britizenship gives you timed practice tests that follow that format, with an explanation after every question so you learn why an answer is right. Practice Test 1, Test 2 and Test 3 are free, and you can browse all 46 mock tests at any time.
How to book the Life in the UK Test
Bookings are made online through the official GOV.UK service. The fee is currently £50 per attempt, so check the GOV.UK booking page for the current price, and bring the same ID you booked with. Our guide on what to expect before the test, our list of cities with test centres and our list of official resources cover the rest.
Common questions
How many questions are on the Life in the UK Test?
24 multiple-choice questions, in 45 minutes.
What is the pass mark?
75%, which means at least 18 of the 24 questions correct.
Is the Life in the UK Test the same as the British citizenship test?
Yes, people use both names for the same exam. You need it for British citizenship (naturalisation) and for most ILR applications; citizenship also has a separate English language requirement.
Are these practice tests the same as the real test?
No. The real questions are not published, so ours are written from the official handbook to cover the same topics, format and difficulty.
Cheaper than fish and chips 🐟 🍟
The test costs £50 to retake. A little prep goes a long way.
