HOW TO REGISTER FOR IELTS
4 steps to apply for IELTS
Please note that registrations for the IELTS test in our current locations (Paris, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Nantes, Strasbourg & Toulouse) in France are centralised by the British Council office in Paris. You can take your IELTS test at various dates throughout the year in any of those locations, however IELTS registrations are always handled by the British Council in Paris.
Prepare the following documents before you reserve your place, as we must receive them within 5 working days of your registration online (we strongly recommend that you use an express postal service):
two recent photos (passport size) (photographs must be no more than 6 months old, be taken against a plain background, show the candidate with a neutral expression, with mouth closed and no glasses. N.B: Please be aware that your picture appears on your Test Result Form)
a photocopy of your ID (passport or European ID card)
payment of €190.00 by cheque made out to the 'British Council', by bank transfer (our bank details are available below - you must send us a proof of payment with your application) or in cash (only with the correct amount at the British Council Paris reception desk). Please note that from the 1st April 2012, the IELTS registration fee will be of €190.00
If we do not receive your documents within 5 working days of your online registration, your application will be cancelled automatically.
Register using our Online Registration System. It will take you only about 10 minutes to reserve a place on the date of your choice. Please note that you must print the 'Application Summary' or the email that will be sent to you at the end of the online registration process and send it to us, along with the documents requested in step 3 above, ensuring that we receive them within five working days:
British Council France IELTS 9 rue Constantine 75007 Paris
Opening hours : 9.30-13.00 and 14.00-17.30
Incomplete applications cannot be processed. Once the full application form has been received, you will get an automatic email with your access codes to Road to IELTS free online training. A confirmation email will then be sent to you 4 or 5 weeks before the test date with the start time and venue adress.
If you wish to pay by bank transfer, please download our bank details . Please arrange for your bank to add 'IELTS/family name/city/test date' to the 'Reference' field (for e.g.: IELTS/Dupont/Lyon/09Jan20XX). Do not forget to send us a bank transfer receipt with your name and test date clearly mentioned on it.
