## Where is the Aberdeen theory test centre?

Aberdeen Theory Test Centre is at Suite 2, First Floor, Union Point, Blaikies Quay, Aberdeen AB11 5PW (address from GOV.UK’s official theory test centre finder). The theory test is the same across Great Britain. In Scotland, parking on pavements, at dropped kerbs and double parking are banned — a rule the Highway Code now reflects.
