How to Reschedule a Permit Test in Delaware

If you need to reschedule your Delaware learner’s permit test—whether it's the written knowledge exam or the road test—you have two convenient options: online through the DMV’s MyDMV portal or by calling your local DMV office. Here's how to do it.

Option 1: Reschedule Online via MyDMV

The Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles offers an online scheduling tool called My Road Test Scheduler through the MyDMV portal. To reschedule:

Visit the Delaware DMV website.
Click on “Online Services”.
Select “My Road Test” and follow the prompts to log in or create an account.

Make sure to have your learner’s permit number ready. If you haven’t yet created a MyDMV account, you’ll need to register before accessing the scheduler.

Option 2: Reschedule by Phone
