Are free tests enough?

Yes, to start with, but to cover all 13 areas, you often need to combine them with module pages or Premium.

When should I start with timed tests?

Compare Practice Tests for the Swedish Citizenship Test

Last updated: 17 June 2026

There are several different types of practice tests you can use to prepare. Here, we go through the differences between free short tests, complete tests, module training, and timed tests – and when each type is most beneficial.

Free Short Tests

Short tests with 5–10 questions are good for a quick check-up or to get started without registering. They give you a quick feel for the difficulty level.

The disadvantage is that they don't cover all areas and don't match the length of the real test.

Module Training

Module training means you practice one area at a time – for example, democracy or law and justice. It's effective when you want to close a knowledge gap.

Use module training first, so you have the basics in place before taking a complete test.

Complete Practice Tests (around 60 questions)

According to UHR (the Swedish Council for Higher Education), the Swedish citizenship test is a multiple-choice test with approximately 60 questions to be answered in 90 minutes. Each question has four answer options with one correct answer. The test is written in Swedish and on paper. The first test occasion is scheduled for August 15, 2026, in Stockholm.

A complete test reflects the length and mix of questions in the real test. This is where you train your endurance and pace.

Timed Tests

Timed tests simulate the 90-minute limit. They are valuable closer to the test day so you know you can finish in time.

Start without a time limit to learn the content – then add the time when you start to feel confident.

Which type should you start with?

New to the test: start with free short tests and read the module pages.

In the middle of preparation: focus on module training for your weak areas.

Last few weeks: take complete and timed tests regularly.
