What do my IELTS scores mean?
Results for the IELTS test are given on a 9-band scale. They are designed to be easy and simple to understand. The results are reported as band scores on a scale from 1 to 9, with 1 being the lowest and 9 indicating the highest level of English language proficiency.
You will receive a band score for each section of the test—Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. These individual scores, which are equally weighted, are then averaged and rounded to the nearest half band, to produce an overall band score.
The same scoring system is used for all versions of the IELTS test. You can read more about how the IELTS test score is calculated here.
Get your IELTS results online
You will be able to view your IELTS results online for 28 days. However, this should not be used as an official confirmation of your performance.
You can access your IELTS results here. You will need your passport or ID number (the same number you used when you registered for the test) to access your results online. Contact us at 71116878 if you have any queries or issues.

What is a Test Report Form (TRF)?
A copy of your IELTS score is on your Test Report Form or TRF. You will receive only one copy of your IELTS Test Report Form, which is valid for two years, unless you are applying to Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), or United Kingdom Border Agency (UKBA). In these cases, you can receive two. Proof of application to CIC and UKBA must be provided.
What is an e-TRF?
An IELTS e-TRF is a digital version of the IELTS Test Report Form. It’s the same IELTS TRF you know, delivered digitally. IELTS e-TRFs are now available for test takers who sit the IELTS on Computer test at eligible test centres.

Additional Test Report Form (ATRF)
Up to five copies of your TRF will be posted electronically to the relevant organisations you have listed on your IELTS application form for free. Further requests can be made but there may be additional administrative charges. Contact us at 71116878 to make this request.
To pick up your TRF from the test Centre, you must bring with you the same form of identification that you used to register for the test.
NOTE: Test Centers are NOT permitted to give test results over the telephone, via fax or e-mail to the candidate.
Re-mark your IELTS test
You can ask for a review of your score(s) if you are not satisfied with your results through a process known as Enquiry on Results (EOR).
What happens during the review process?
Senior examiners/markers, who are not aware of the original marks awarded for each test section (Listening, Reading, Writing or Speaking), re-mark the test papers.
After receiving notice of the remark result, your test centre issues a new Test Report Form (TRF) if the score has changed.
Depending on a number of factors, such as the number of sections requested for a remark, the results of your EOR will be available in 2–21 days. Please get in touch with your test centre or IELTS Partner if you have not received a response after 21 days.
You must pay an Enquiry on Results fee to get your IELTS test remarked. If your band score changes, the fee will be fully refundable.
When you provide recognising organisations with your Test Form Number, they can use the IELTS Results Verification Service to check your IELTS results.co
