LEVEL TEST

TCF - French Knowledge Test

The TCF is the language level test of the French Ministry of National Education, Youth and Sports. It assesses the general French language skills of people for whom French is not the mother tongue.

The TCF is a linguistic level test in French as a general language intended for all non-French speaking audiences who wish, for professional, personal or study reasons, to have their knowledge of French assessed and validated in a simple, reliable and fast way.

The TCF gives rise to the issuance of a level certificate. As with all language tests, this certificate is valid for two years.

There are 3 versions of the TCF:

 

TCF All Public 

  • For further studies
  • For professional or personal reasons
  • For positioning or certification of their French language level

TCF IRN             

  • For an application for French nationality
  • For a request for a long-term resident card
  • For validation of level A1 as part of the OFII citizen course

TCF Quebec       
For immigration to the province of Quebec


There are two types of TCF tests:

TCF in breakable proofs : The TCF Tout public (TP) and the TCF for Quebec (QC): the candidate can choose the tests he wishes to take. Please note: for the TCF TP, MCQs are, however, compulsory.

The TCF in the indivisible trials : the TCF Integration, Residence and Nationality (IRN), the TCF Canada (CA): the candidate must imperatively pass all the tests of the test.


Registration is only done on site on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays between 9am and 12pm. Go to the reception with an identity document.
