Moving an existing test? Your options from Orkney
This 3-nearest-centres limit applies only if you already have a test booked. From Orkney, the official DVSA options are:
- Wick
- Thurso
- Lerwick
You can also move back to the centre you first booked at (or were booked at on 9 June 2026). No test yet? This limit doesn't apply — you can book at any UK centre. Source: DVSA, gov.uk. Check your live options →
Is this legal at Orkney?
Under the 2026 DVSA rules (SI 2026/326) only you can book, change, swap or cancel a test. We never do any of those - we only watch publicly visible availability at Orkney and send you the link. You always book it yourself, so it's fully within the rules.
