Who can take the DELF/DALF French exams?

Different versions of the test are available, with adjusted topics and themes, but all at the same levels:

DELF-DALF Tout Public	Adults/Young adults
DELF Junior	Secondary school students (aged 12 to 17)

You can enrol directly on the exam at the level you require, without any proof of prior study or any other qualification.

PLEASE NOTE

You will receive your results approximately 4-8 weeks after the exam. It takes around 3-4 months after that to receive your diploma, which is now the only document you can use for official procedures.

If you need to prove your level of French sooner, a TEF might be a better option for you. Visit our page on the TEF exams here.
