Registering, step by step
- Register and book on chinesetest.cn, choosing the centre and format (paper or computer).
- Pay the centre the way its page says (most centres here use their own online shop, bank transfer or cash). The online status usually changes to “paid” only after the centre reconciles payments.
- Print the admission ticket and bring the same ID you registered with.
Good to know
- Macerata's Saturday date is a common trap: the system shows 13 Dec, the exam is on the 12th.
- Macerata's HSK 3–6 prices include HSKK; its page says the written test at those levels is booked together with the speaking test.
