CitizenReadyLife in the UK Test in Norwich
The Life in the UK test is taken at official test centres run for the Home Office — there are 38 on the official published list, including in Norwich. You do not book with the centre directly: you book on GOV.UK, and when you book you choose your centre yourself — any centre, not just the nearest one.
