How to check Cambridge English dates, fees and test locations

Registration details vary by city, centre and session. Use this checklist and official sources instead of relying on stale dates or fees.

Start with the direct answer

Confirm the exam and version, then use the registering organisation's current page to check city, date, deadline, fee inclusions and whether components run on different days. This site does not freeze changing prices or sessions.

01

Prepare four details before searching

Centres publish schedules by exam, version, city and session. Missing details can mix up different exams or locations.

  • Exam, such as A2 Key for Schools or B1 Preliminary for Schools
  • Preferred city and acceptable travel range
  • Purpose and latest acceptable result date
  • Currently available paper- or computer-based format
02

A fee is more than one number

Check what the fee includes, payment method, deadline, refund/change conditions and optional services. Verify any screenshot or forwarded price on the current page.

  • Confirm currency, charges and payment channel
  • Check whether speaking and written components share the same day and location
  • Keep registration confirmation and payment records
03

Final checks before payment

Check the candidate's English name, identity document, exam version, city, date and contact details before payment.

  • Use the registering organisation's current confirmation page as the final source
  • Contact the registering organisation about discrepancies instead of guessing
  • Policies and sessions can change; check notices again before test day

Verify current official information

This article explains the process, checklist and decision method. Changing dates, fees, locations and policies must be checked on the current registering-organisation or Cambridge English page.
