When and how

  1. Results come out one month after a paper-based test, 15 days after a computer-based written test and 20 days after a computer-based speaking test (later around public holidays).
  2. Go to the chinesetest.cn homepage and enter your admission ticket number and name.
  3. Not out on the published day? Contact your test centre first; centres report problems to CTI within three days of the release date.

Only candidates who completed the test normally can check results and receive a report.

The paper score report

Where you testedHow you get it
Mainland ChinaPosted from CTI within 5 working days of release, to your registration address
Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, overseasSent to your centre about 45 days after the test; collect it there

A score report is valid for two years as proof of proficiency.

Score services (in “My Account”)

  • Additional reports — up to 10 per application.
  • Corrections — for wrong personal details on the report. Free changes end three days after the test; after that it is a paid application.
  • Score review — if you doubt a result. Once you apply and pay, the review cannot be stopped.

Why a score can be withheld

CTI investigates abnormal cases, for example a large mismatch between a candidate's level and score, and runs random technical checks. During an investigation results are held or withdrawn; it usually takes 2–8 weeks. CTI can ask a candidate to retest, generally within a month of the release.
