How much does a LILATE cost and what does the price include?

The standard price of a LILATE is €180 VAT included.
This fee covers the certification exam only and does not include any preparation courses.

What the LILATE price includes

The LILATE price includes:

• the official LILATE certification exam
• an assessment via video call with a human examiner
• a professional role-play scenario tailored to the language being assessed
• an analysis of your comprehension, expression, and interaction skills
• the delivery of a LILATE certificate (from B1 level onwards) or a level attestation (A1 or A2)
• results that can be used in a professional or recruitment context

👉 LILATE is a certification, not a training course.

Does the LILATE includes language lessons?

No.
The LILATE includes no lessons whatsoever, neither before nor after the test.
If you wish to improve your level, practise, or prepare specifically for the exam, you will need to follow a separate training programme or preparation course, offered by a training organisation, your employer, or a partner provider.

Can I prepare for the LILATE before taking it?

Yes, absolutely, but it is not required.
Some candidates take the LILATE directly, while others choose to complete a few targeted lessons or specific coaching depending on their professional goals.
The duration and format of preparation depend on your starting level and expectations.
