Rescheduling your IELTS exam date is possible but comes with conditions and potential fees. If you can’t attend the test on your booked date, contact your test provider as soon as possible.
The British Council and IDP allow candidates to transfer their test date to another available date, provided you request the change at least five weeks before the original test date. A rescheduling fee may apply, and the new IELTS exam date must fall within three months of the original booking.
For emergencies like illness or unforeseen circumstances, you may be eligible for a free reschedule if you provide valid documentation. Keep in mind that rescheduling policies vary by test center, so check the specific terms and conditions for your location.
