That's all you need
Time is rarely the problem
Same nationwide, unlimited retakes
You will not get your result the same day. BAMF assesses the tests centrally. Expect several weeks, or up to about three months if there is a backlog. You can retake as often as you like, but each attempt costs another €25 and you wait for the next available appointment. That is why it is worth passing on your first attempt.
