The taxi driver question set
ИААА publishes the questions for part 1 of the taxi driver exam on its page rta.government.bg/bg/752, as 5 documents, one per module. They are not on the public-eis.rta.government.bg portal, which holds the questions for the other categories.
The set has 257 questions. Every question has 2 or 3 answers, and exactly one is correct. The exam is 20 questions, drawn from the modules in fixed numbers - see the table below. The exam format follows item 30 and Annex 1 of Order No. РД-01-8 of 12.01.2024.
If you do not speak Bulgarian, see the guide to the exam language and how the test works for foreigners.
What about part 2? What the app does not cover
The taxi driver exam has two parts. Part 1 is the test of ИААА questions, and that is what the app covers.
Part 2 is a separate written exam held locally, in each municipality: addresses, tourist sites and the shortest route. It differs from city to city, it is not part of the national question set, and the app does not cover it.
If you are looking for taxi driver exam questions for Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Burgas or another city: part 1 uses one and the same official set, and for part 2 you should ask the municipality where you plan to work.
The 5 modules of part 1
Each exam draws an exact number of questions from every module.
| Module | In the set | On the exam |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Organisation of taxi transport | 66 | 6 |
| 2. Vehicle operation | 38 | 3 |
| 3. Working with the taximeter | 49 | 3 |
| 4. Administrative penalties | 56 | 4 |
| 5. Road safety | 48 | 4 |
| Total | 257 | 20 |
Module 1, organisation of taxi transport, weighs the most on the exam: 6 of the 20 questions, followed by modules 4 and 5 with 4 each. If you are unsure where to start, start there.
