Pass the Portuguese Driving Theory Test in English 2027

Preparing for the category B theory test (Exame de Codigo) for a car licence in Portugal, and reading the Portuguese Highway Code as a newcomer? This guide explains the rules, signs, fines and points at the level the test asks for, then lets you practise until the answers come without hesitation.
The real test has 30 questions in 30 minutes, and you need 27 correct answers, so no more than 3 mistakes. The theory test can be taken with an English translation, which you ask your driving school to arrange. The practice questions use the book's own three-option format, so you train on the rules rather than on a copy of the test.
What is inside:
- 12 short chapters you can read on a phone: the route to a Portuguese licence and the theory test in English, road words and traffic officers, road signs, markings and traffic lights, position on the road, roundabouts and right of way, pedestrians, cyclists and vulnerable road users, speed, distance and signalling, overtaking, turning and reversing, stopping and parking, lights and visibility, vehicle, passengers, children, loads and papers, motorways, level crossings, breakdowns and accidents, alcohol, phones, fines, points and losing your licence
- 3 appendices: key numbers at a glance, an English-Portuguese glossary with a test-day checklist, and a seven-day revision plan
- 300 original practice questions in 12 topic sets, every one with the correct answer and a short explanation
- 5 full mock tests of 30 questions, in the book's three-option format
Rules are current at the time of writing. Where a point could not be confirmed, the book says so and tells you to check with your driving school or the official sources.
All questions are original. This is an independent study guide: it is not produced, endorsed or approved by any authority or test organisation, and it does not contain real test questions. It does not replace your driving school or the official texts.

Method of creation: this book was written with the help of artificial intelligence tools, under the author's direction; every rule was written from its source text and reviewed and every practice question was written for this book.
