The Bulgarian driving theory test is set by ИААА, Bulgaria's road transport administration, and the exam itself is administered in Bulgarian. Here is the exact format, what "English mode" in the Listovki app actually covers, and 5 solved sample questions in English.
The official Bulgarian driving theory test is set by ИААА (the Road Transport Administration) and is administered in Bulgarian at the test centre. The question bank behind it is public, published on ИААА's own portal.
The Listovki app translates that entire official bank into English - question text, every answer choice, and our explanation for most questions - so you can understand and study the material properly in English before exam day. It is a study tool, not a substitute for the exam itself.
Whether an English-language option exists at the test centre on the day is set by ИААА, not by this app - ask your driving school or ИААА directly. What the app guarantees is that you can learn what the Bulgarian questions actually mean in English, at your own pace, fully offline.
Three licence categories, three formats. A question only scores if you select exactly the correct answer(s) - there is no partial credit, and no feedback is shown during the exam.
| Category | Questions | Time | Pass mark |
|---|---|---|---|
| A · Motorcycle | 40 | 40 min | 81 of 90 |
| B · Car | 45 | 40 min | 87 of 97 |
| C · Truck | 30 | 30 min | 57 of 66 |
Category B (car) also has 2 video questions, the same as category A (motorcycle); category C (truck) has none. Points per question range from 1 to 3.
Real category B questions from the official bank, in English. Answers are in the official order from the ИААА bank, the correct one(s) are marked, and the explanation is ours, the same as in the app.
Explanation
Pressure is measured on a cold tyre. Driving heats the tyre, the air inside expands and the reading comes out higher than the true pressure. The check is therefore made before a journey, or after the car has stood long enough for the tyres to cool. This is a maintenance rule, not a provision of the law.
Explanation
A motor vehicle is a road vehicle fitted with an engine that propels it, so mopeds, tractors and trolleybuses are motor vehicles. A bicycle runs on muscle power through the pedals and has no engine, so it is not a motor vehicle. A trolleybus is classed with cars, so it too is a motor vehicle.
Explanation
On a two-lane road with two-way traffic the driver keeps as far to the right on the carriageway as possible where the lanes are not marked out, and where they are marked out, drives in the right-hand lane. Driving in whichever lane suits him better, or permanently in a free left-hand lane, is wrong - it goes against the rule to keep as far right as possible.

Explanation
When driving at night and in reduced visibility, a motor vehicle must have dipped-beam or main-beam headlights, position lamps and the rear number plate lamp switched on. That is why the three answers naming these lights are correct. The hazard warning lights are NOT a light for normal driving: they only mark a stopped or dangerous vehicle, so that answer is wrong.
Basis: чл. 70 ЗДвП
Explanation
When signalled to stop by an enforcement officer and given no other instructions, the driver must stop smoothly and at the far right-hand side of the carriageway, so as not to create danger. Stopping immediately in front of the officer or in the middle of the lane is therefore wrong. This rule is set out in Art. 103 ЗДвП.

Листовки - BG Driving Theory has the entire official bank for categories A, B and C, fully translated.
Yes. The official exam itself is administered in Bulgarian by ДАИ, but the Listovki app is fully translated into English - questions and answer choices, plus an English explanation for most questions - so you can study and understand every question in English before you sit the real, Bulgarian-language test.
It depends on the licence category. For category B (car), the exam is 45 questions in 40 minutes, scored out of 97 points. Categories A (motorcycle) and C (truck) have their own question counts and time limits - see the format table below.
For category B you need at least 87 of 97 points. A question only scores if you select exactly the correct answer or answers and nothing else - a partially correct answer counts as wrong, and some questions have up to 3 correct answers, so read carefully.
Yes. Anyone taking the Bulgarian driving theory test can use the app to prepare, whether you are a foreigner living in Bulgaria or a Bulgarian citizen studying abroad. The official test centre sets the language options available on exam day - ask your driving school or ИААА about that.
Yes, fully. The English question bank, images and explanations are built into the app, so it works with no internet connection once installed.
