Knowledge Test: What do I need?

Everybody who tests needs to have at a bare-minimum some form of Photo ID and a WA State DLN number (Or ID only if it is a WA State ID or an Instruction Permit with Photo.) You are required to present ID every time you test.

In addition, the Digital Knowledge Exam will require a License eXpress Account, and you will need to bring in a Tablet or Laptop computer that you feel comfortable using for digital testing.

Please ensure that your device is prepared before coming in. Make sure your web browser is up to date, that your battery is charged, and that you have the login info for your License eXpress Account

For Digital Knowledge Exams, we will provide an internet connection for your device during the test

Need to apply for a DLN number online? Click below to sign up for License eXpress AND obtain a DLN (Remember to save your login info for License eXpress)

If already have a WA State DLN, WA State ID/Instruction Permit and don't have a License eXpress account, click below to sign up (Save your login info for later)

If the sign-up page asks if you have a "driving record," answer "Yes" if you have a WA State ID or an Instruction Permit already.

What to study

Study the WA State Driver Guide book for the best information. Avoid online "practice tests," as they've caused many applicants to fail. The online tests are very inaccurate compared to the actual Knowledge Exam, and they are not affiliated with the Department of Licensing.
