Submitted through one of our registration agents     

At registration you or your agent will be issued with an official receipt and a confirmation letter indicating the test schedule and venue.

CANDIDATES WITH SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS   

In order to ensure that the language ability of all candidates is assessed fairly and objectively, IELTS provides a comprehensive service for candidates who have special requirements, including specific learning difficulties, hearing difficulties and visual difficulties.

If you require a modified version of the test, for example in Braille, you must give the test centre three months’ notice. This notice period is necessary for the modified test version to be prepared. If your circumstances require only special administrative arrangements to be made, such as extra time, you must give the test centre six weeks’ notice. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

FURTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION:   
HOW WILL I KNOW THE VENUE AND TIME OF THE TEST?   

During registration at the British Council, you will be advised of the venue. A letter together with an official receipt will be given confirming the exam.  If the venue is not confirmed at time of registration, you can do one of the following:
