- A valid national ID must be in English and should include: your full name, photograph and date of birth (DoB) – all of these features must be recorded on the one form of national ID.
- A European Union (EU) Card is regarded as a National Government ID and can be used for booking and sitting the test. You can use either your passport or national ID on the test day to verify your identity.
Please note that if a National ID is not in English, then a certified translated copy will be required.
One form of valid identification to book and appear for the OET is required. The ID that is provided must be brought on the day of your test.

For refugees/Asylum status cases-
If you are a refugee or are of asylum status and you do not hold a valid passport or government-issued national ID for the country in which you are attending the test, the OET can be booked using the official immigration documents that recognise your status and contain your full name, date of birth (DoB), and photograph.

It is always advisable to keep track of all the necessary information, requirements and guidelines before appearing for any test and the OET is no different. At times, failing to adhere to the guidelines or failing to reach the test centre or uploading the wrong documents can open the gateway wide for the uncalled for inconveniences and unnecessary hurdles. Hence it is always wise to get acclimatized to all such details.
All the best!
