Sharjah Police (federal MOI)
Sharjah SRTA Theory Test Questions PDF
Sharjah lets you retake more freely than Dubai, and Sharjah Police run both the licensing and the final road test on live urban roads. Clearing theory early buys time to prepare for that.

What is riding on this test
This pack costs AED 39. A fail costs the fee again and the wait to rebook — what a fail actually costs.
Why this pack for Sharjah
- SRTA runs Sharjah's roads and public transport; licensing sits with Sharjah Police through the federal MOI platform, which is where you book and pay.
- Sharjah Driving Institute packages commonly run AED 1,500-3,000 including several retakes, so theory is where you save time rather than money.
- The question standard is federal, so this bank is the same one Dubai and Abu Dhabi candidates sit.

The rest describe the sign in words. Read the note below.
The honest weak spot. The real test shows signs as pictures. This bank pictures 21 distinct signs, and its printable sheet carries those 21, not Sharjah Police's full catalogue. If signs are your weak area, learn them from the official handbook as well; the rules, priority and penalties questions are where this pack is strongest.
Which language do you want it in?
The pack is the same questions in every language. Pick the one you want and that is the PDF you get.
Sharjah Police (federal MOI) sets the real paper in English. So this pack is in the language you will actually sit the test in.

Road-sign reference sheet
The 21 signs pictured in the bank on one printable page, captions separated so you can test yourself. It is not the authority's full sign catalogue - see what the bank covers, below.
13 exam-length papers
Each paper is 40 questions, the real length, with a topic mix that matches the live paper rather than running all the signs first.
Marked answer key
The correct answer, why it is correct, and the rule it comes from - for every question, not a letter grid.

Topic revision bank
Everything not used in a paper, grouped by topic, answers marked - for fixing one weak area.
Car, motorcycle or truck - why it is one pack and not three
The RTA Theory (Knowledge) Test is mostly the same exam whoever you are. Of the 609 questions in this bank, 469 are the shared road-signs and rules material every candidate sits - signs, right of way, traffic rules, penalties and safety. Only 70 are motorcycle-specific and 70 are heavy-vehicle specific.
That is why we do not sell a motorcycle pack or a truck pack separately. A 70-question motorcycle-only product would leave you unprepared for the 469 questions that make up most of the paper you will actually sit, and selling you that would be taking your money for something designed to fail you.
One pack, all three tracks. If you are riding, the motorcycle paper is your supplement and the rest is your exam. If you are going for a truck or bus licence, the same applies in reverse.
What is in the Sharjah pack
609 questions as 13 printable papers - eleven light-vehicle papers at the real 40-question length, one motorcycle, one truck and bus - each with an answer section and an explanation per answer.
The federal paper is the same across the UAE. What this edition carries is the Sharjah route: who issues, where you sit it, and what the cheaper fee does and does not buy you.
What a fail actually costs
- Per attempt
- Around AED 50 per attempt
- If you fail
- The fee again. Sharjah is markedly cheaper per attempt than Dubai or Abu Dhabi, which changes the arithmetic - a fail here costs you time and a rebooking slot more than it costs money.

These are original practice questions for study only, written from the public RTA handbook and UAE traffic rules. They are not the official exam questions and Wathim is not affiliated with the RTA, ITC, SRTA or any UAE government body. Test format, question count and pass mark can change and vary by emirate, so always confirm the current requirements with the licensing authority before your real test.
Frequently asked
609 questions, every one with the correct answer, an explanation and the rule it comes from. They are arranged as 13 exam-length papers of 40 questions each, plus a topic-by-topic revision bank for everything left over.
No, and you should be wary of anyone who claims to sell one. Sharjah Police (federal MOI) does not publish its live bank. These are original practice questions written from the published traffic rules and the standard GCC road signs, which is how every legitimate practice resource works. The format, pass mark and fees are set by Sharjah Police (federal MOI) and can change - confirm before you book.
The practice tests at /driving-test/uae/sharjah are free, complete and stay that way. The pack is the offline version: one printable document with exam-length papers, a marked answer key you can read away from a screen, a road-sign sheet you can pin up, and a revision bank grouped by topic. If you revise on paper, or you want to work without data, that is what you are paying for.
30 of 40 correct, which is 75%. You get about 30 minutes. Every paper in the pack is marked against that same threshold, so a score in the pack means the same thing as a score in the test.
Pick the language on this page and that is the PDF you get: English, Arabic, Urdu, Hindi, Malayalam. Note that Sharjah Police (federal MOI) sets the written paper only in English and Arabic. Urdu, Hindi, Malayalam are offered as an interpreter reading the questions aloud in the test centre, so a pack in those languages helps you revise but is not the language you will read on the day. The options available are set by Sharjah Police (federal MOI) and by your test centre - confirm when you book.
Card checkout is not live yet. Ask for the pack through the contact form or email info@wathim.com and we will send it to you directly, usually the same day. The price is AED 39.
No. Sharjah Police handles driver licensing. SRTA runs public transport and roads in the emirate, which is why people assume it does licences too, and why a fair number of first trips go to the wrong counter.
Different emirate, different fee schedule, same federal paper. Around AED 50 against AED 200 is the commonly quoted gap for 2026. It does not mean an easier test - the format and pass mark are the federal ones.
A UAE licence is federal and valid across all seven emirates once issued. What is not transferable is a part-finished file - if you start the process in one emirate you generally finish it there.
The question bank is the federal one, so it is the same questions as our Dubai and Abu Dhabi editions. The page and the pack framing are Sharjah-specific: the authority, the route and the local steps.
Yes - one paper each, alongside the eleven light-vehicle papers.
No. The authority does not publish its live bank. These match the format, pass mark and syllabus, which is what makes them worth sitting.

Who made this, and what it is not
- Who wrote it
- The Wathim GCC Services Desk, the same desk that files these cases for clients.
- What it is built from
- 4 of our own published guides on this topic, plus 2 outside sources listed below with what each one was used for.
- When it was last checked
- June 2026. Every figure carries its own date and source.
Being straight with you
- We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice. Where a case needs one, the pack says so and says at what point.
- We are not a government authority and have no influence over one. Nothing in here changes a decision that has already been made. It tells you which door the decision came from and what that door accepts.
- Checking your own status is free. The official portals are linked throughout and they cost nothing. What you are paying for is knowing what to do with the answer, not access to it.
- GCC fees and thresholds move without notice. Everything here is dated and attributed so you can tell how old it is. Confirm the current figure with the authority before you pay anything.
- If a figure is wrong, tell us. Send it through and we will check it against the authority and correct the pack. Your download link always serves the current version, so a correction reaches you without you asking.
Where these figures come from
No GCC traffic authority publishes a fee schedule or a question bank you can check, so every number on this page is sourced to where we found it and dated. Where we could not source one, the row says so rather than repeating a figure from a site that cannot source it either.
