Life in the UK Test Book and Official Guide

KnowTheUK is an independent study tool. It does not sell the official book and is not connected with GOV.UK or the Home Office.

GOV.UK says test content comes from the official Guide for New Residents. The guide is available as a book, eBook, or audio material from the official Life in the UK Test shop.

How practice tests fit in

Practice questions are best used after, or alongside, the Life in the UK book. They help you check recall, spot weak topics, and build speed before the real test.

KnowTheUK provides 40 free Life in the UK mock tests with 960 questions and instant explanations. Use them to supplement the official guide, not as a substitute for it.

Study order

Read a section of the official guide, take a short practice test, review the explanations, and revisit missed topics in the book. Repeat this until your scores are consistently above the pass mark.
