STATE LANGUAGE EXAM

How many levels are there to the State Language Exam?

The State Language Exam is open to every applicant, whose language ability is registered on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

If they want to test their language ability, applicants may choose from three options: 1. Primary State Language Exam (Level B2) 2. General State Language Exam (Level C1) or 3. Higher State Language Exam (Level C2) which is suitable for both translators and interpreters.

What dates are the Language Exams on?

State Language Exams take place twice a year, once in the autumn term and once in the spring term and for those studying English in both terms. The date of the exam is always the same and valid for the whole of the Czech Republic.

How much does the State Language Cost?

The cost of a Primary State Language Exam is 3 500 Czech Crowns. If the candidate does not pass the written part of the examination and is therefore not invited to the oral part of the exam, then he/she will get 500 Crowns back. The cost of the General State Language Exam is 4 200 Czech Crowns. Again, if the candidate does not pass the written part of the examination and is therefore not invited to the speaking part of the exam, then he/she will get 600 Czech Crowns back.
