In which languages can you take the Regitra exam in 2026? 🌍
Short answer: from 1 January 2026 the Regitra theory exam can be taken in Lithuanian, English, Polish, Spanish, French, German and Ukrainian. Russian was removed (it was available until the end of 2025), while Ukrainian was added from 2026-02-09 and German later in 2026. For those who don't speak Lithuanian, the most realistic path is to prepare and take the exam in English.

What if you studied in Russian?
Until 2024 the exam was taken in Russian more than 13,000 times a year, so the change affected many people. For Ukrainians the problem is solved — from 2026-02-09 the exam is available in Ukrainian, and an interpreter into Ukrainian is allowed at the practical exam. For those who studied in Russian, the realistic paths are:
- English — if you understand at least basic English, this is the simplest route: study and take the exam in the same language. RoboKET works fully in English.
- Lithuanian — the language of KET tests is repetitive with a limited vocabulary; with illustrated theory (pictures + short explanations) the terms come quicker than you'd expect.
- Polish — a new option for Polish speakers from 2026.
How to prepare when the exam language is not your native one
One rule: study in the language you will take the exam in. Illustrated theory helps most here — the picture conveys the situation and the text anchors the term. RoboKET's theory and tests with explanations work in Lithuanian and English, with a true exam mode (30 questions / 30 min / 6 mistakes) and passing-probability measurement — register at Regitra once you consistently reach 90%. You can start with the free tests.
