Exam Dates 2026
The Goethe-Institut organizes three to four exam sessions per week for levels A1 to B2, up to and including December.For organizational reasons, we only make exam dates available for booking 4 to 8 weeks in advance.
For technical reasons, only exams with available places and therefore open for booking can be displayed. Unfortunately, dates that are fully booked no longer appear in the overview. If no exams are currently available for booking, this does not mean that our examination service is closed.
Refunds of Examination Fees
The General Terms and Conditions of the Goethe-Institut for institutes abroad apply and will be provided to you upon booking through the Webshop. Please note the cancellation policy:Examination bookings may be cancelled free of charge up to four weeks before the scheduled examination date.
From four weeks prior to the examination, no refund of the examination fee is possible, and the full examination fee will be charged.
Candidates who are unable to attend the examination at short notice due to illness, supported by a medical certificate, or because of an appointment at a German embassy, supported by appropriate documentation, will receive a credit note and their examination appointment will be rescheduled.
Compliance with the cancellation deadline is determined by the date on which the Goethe-Institut receives the notice of cancellation by email.
