The TOEFL iBT for Australia and New Zealand

The TOEFL iBT test is accepted for admission by 100% of all Australian universities and for all Australian immigration.

• The test is also accepted by the professional bodies for registration and certification.
• The TOEFL iBT test is accepted to fulfill the English language requirements for a range of temporary and permanent visas, both sponsored and independent, including Post-study, Business, Skilled Migration, Work, and Holiday.
• If you’re applying for an Australian visa, register for a TOEFL iBT test at a test center and the the Australian Department of Home Affairs doesn’t currently accept any English language tests that are taken at home, including the TOEFL iBT Home Edition. TOEFL iBT scores for test dates from July 26, 2023 to May 4, 2024 continue to not be accepted by the department for visa purposes. 

You’ll need to demonstrate your English language skills to the Australian Department of Home Affairs for getting an Australian visa. TOEFL iBT is the best choice for this purpose. Just be sure to check the score requirements of the institutions where you’re applying — those requirements may be different than the student visa requirements.

The TOEFL iBT test is accepted for admission by 100% of all New Zealand universities. Make sure to register for a TOEFL iBT test at a test center as the New Zealand government does not currently accept English-language tests that are taken at home, including the TOEFL iBT Home Edition.

New Zealand student visas require an offer from a New Zealand education provider confirming that the applicant has been accepted for admission at that institution.

• TOEFL iBT scores are also accepted for permanent skilled migration visas. Visit the Immigration New Zealand website for more information.
• TOEFL iBT scores are also recognized by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) for Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics (ITPs) and Private Training Establishments (PTEs).
